“ So, in case you have forgotten, here is what Sir Keir Starmer was saying about Margaret Thatcher only a few short months ago.

He was singing her praises. He was reminding us of her epoch-making achievements. He said she had ‘dragged Britain out of its stupor by setting loose our natural entrepreneurialism’.

She was one of the few modern leaders to deliver ‘meaningful change’, said Starmer, in a speech about Labour’s economic plans for the country, which was clearly intended for the ears of this country’s naturally conservative majority.

We rather gathered that he was going to model himself on the Iron Lady, follow in her footsteps. He seemed so generally enthusiastic about Maggie, and so fawning about her legacy, that you half expected him to turn up for his next speech with pineapple-coloured hair and an electric blue handbag.

That was Starmer in December 2023, before the General Election. And what does he say now?

Well, blow me down, but it turns out that he can’t even bear to look at her portrait. He was sitting in the Thatcher Room – her former office on the first floor of No 10 – and his eye was drawn to the excellent oil painting commissioned by then prime minister Gordon Brown. He looked up to where she hung above the fireplace, draped with pearls.

He met her imperious gaze. He shuddered, and confessed that he found it ‘unsettling’ even to be in the same room as her – and now, poof, she has gone. Britain’s first female prime minister has been banished from her own former office, and all because she gives Starmer the collywobbles.

At which point, we are entitled to ask: which is the real Starmer?

Is he a Thatcher fan, or a visceral Leftie?

The answer, my friends, is now clear: not just from his petty decision to remove her picture, but in everything he is doing in government.“……

Starmer Chameleon is a liar, fair enough he’s a Politician but to pretend otherwise is insulting and he’s taking us all for mugs…..

I’m sorry, sky news is legit evil. Calling a 4 day week “an attack on the British community”
You know what? [Poor language removed] those parasites, guillotine them and seize their assets

Proper funny casting an eye on Tory fume - he’s moved a picture. Who cares about engraining and bestowing new rights for workers in what would be one of the greatest changes to our working economy in history - what really matters is a man has moved a picture in his house.
