To think that Kier Starmer shouldn't be welcoming extremists into Britain?

Very foolish.

He must have been living in some kind of racist, homophobic bubble to think posting those things was ok.

Still, I expect they went down well at the time with his followers.

Should it be a top priority for the UK government to help idiots who find themselves in trouble abroad entirely due to their own foolish actions?

But that's the precedent, isnt it? Make helping undeserving idiots in foreign jails the priority?

Still, should be top priority though eh? As that's the norm apparently.

They are getting consular support but Iran is a very difficult country to do business with. Their case begs the question how much can the UK government do to help idiots who find themselves in trouble abroad entirely due to their own foolish actions.

FCDO advises against all travel to Iran

FCDO advises against all travel to Iran. If you are a British national already in Iran, either resident or visitor, carefully consider your presence there and the risks you take by staying.

British and British-Iranian dual nationals are at significant risk of arrest, questioning or detention. Having a British passport or connections to the UK can be reason enough for the Iranian authorities to detain you.

Who was Starmer crowing to?

A vital Labour Party donor?

Lindsay and Craig Foreman certainly don't seem to be his "top priority" so I wouldn't say that was true.

😂😂
I've never had one from Eastern either. We can live in hope. Maybe next Christmas 😂😂

Starmer actions would be the same for any British citizen.

If I ever get a like for one of my posts from you, I will consider it the Paul Hollywood Bake Off of handshakes 😆 🤣

This really made me laugh. I’m sorry I just stopped with the reactions after mnhq quit the basic thanks one. I just ended with the laugh cry flowers whatever 😬

Exactly this. Who was Starmer crowing to?

When he was delighted and had made it a priority.

That's almost a conspiracy theory! Who would be be spying on and for whom? Even less likely that Keir would have been so fulsomely welcome if that was the case 😂

Did I see somebody mention the spy theory on this thread, that he is meant to be worth more keeping him close??????

What I find strange is the performance around it. We don't generally have the PM shouting about citizenship applications and congratulating himself over them, and since Egypt imprisoned el-Fattah, it's safe to assume Starmer wasn't looking for a pat on the back from the Egyptians. Even if Fattah were a genuine political prisoner and not a racist, terrorist loving shit, it's dodgy political ground with so much current division around immigration, so I'd have thought it made more sense to keep it on the quiet, especially if it's true that the guy's high connections helped him along.

So obviously Starmer and his flying monkeys were looking to impress and win over someone by yelling about it and looking for praise. Who?

Edited for clarity.
