For all the Keir fans, he was on Marr this morning. Just catching upGrin

Old thread, but I have just watched him on PMQ and I have a crush Grin I like logic and like to watch law programmes on TV anyway, so bring it on!

Dontcoughnearme · 20/05/2020 14:33

I disagree, there is something about him that seems off.

HissyFitz2020 · 20/05/2020 14:41

I googled him and he reminded me of Billy Corkhill from Brookside

My immediate reaction to that was "Eww! No he doesn't, Keir Starmer's quite nice-looking."

The Corkhill I had in mind was Jimmy Grin Yes, I can see what you mean about Billy though ...

There’s nothing “off” about him. Intelligence is massively sexy. In the days when I had a libido, I would.

NoMorePoliticsPlease · 20/05/2020 14:59

Good grief, he is horrendous, a real turn off. An improvement on Jeremy I suppose

BGD2012 · 27/05/2020 23:38

There is something quite attractive about him and he was certainly good looking in a boyish way when he was younger. I never found Billy Corkhill remotely attractive but there is a slight resemblance.

InvisibleWomenMustBeRead · 27/05/2020 23:57

OMG you're so right - he does look like Billy Corkhill Grin

Serin · 28/05/2020 07:53

I like him, seems like a really decent person. I also like Nick Thomas-Symonds, Andy Burnham is the only one I find attractive though.

BGD2012 · 28/05/2020 08:16

Starmer is growing on me. Boris hates being held to account and I think Starmer will do that well.

WikkiTikkiWoo · 28/05/2020 08:19

haven't read full thread so might have been said.

But apparently he is the inspiration for Mr Darcey in Bridget Jones

WikkiTikkiWoo · 28/05/2020 08:26

I met him at a rally during last election campaign.

First - he was very charismatic.

Second - great handshake. Not over bearing, but not damp or limp. I put great weight on handshakes!!

I didn't notice him being short.. I would guess around DH's height of 5'10.

BGD2012 · 28/05/2020 08:36

I can see the Darcey thing when he was younger. I'm surprised he is nearly 60, he does look good.

Thepilotlightsgoneout · 28/05/2020 09:17

I remember him being on Jeremy Vine years ago when he was head of the CPS. He explained how prosecutions work, very clearly and reasonably without being patronising. I remember it as was so impressed by him.

Next election will be Starmer v Sunak I reckon

Missheart · 09/09/2024 14:34

Old post, but how is this going now he is Prime Minister?

Missheart · 09/09/2024 14:39

I loved him back in 2020 and I love him more now!

This post aged well. Starmer was very guessable, but Johnson not making it to the election was a bigger call.

I'm guessing that you didn't foresee there being another Tory leader between Johnson and Sunak though.
