When one of the Dead Ringers did an impression of Keir Starmer on the RVP tonight there was alot of booing.
ITV kept it in too.
How embarrassing for Starmer.

Says alot though about what people think of Starmer.😀

Crass but at least it's allowed, their opinion and all that. Says more about them than Starmer. Trump would be sending the police round and insulting the booers on social media.

Terrible behaviour.
Why would an adult behave like this?
It wasn't funny.
I doubt politicians bother about idiots like this though.

"I doubt politicians bother about idiots like this though."

What does this mean? What does 'bother' mean in this context

Anyone who goes to an event like that and boos has no manners.

That would be my view whoever the politician or public figure was.

Do you endorse behaviour like that in a theatre @Netcurtainnelly ?

Its neither here not there what I think.

It just shows how much hate there is out there for the real Keir Starmer.

Never been to a panto then? Booing the villain is encouraged. This was a comedy performance.

They boo because it’s like a pantomime performance, in the pantomime season.
