I will hold my hand up and say I haven't RTWT.

But there is something wonderful and attractive about a man who is educated, erudite and measured. It is a YES from me.

Compare and contrast to the buffoon and charlatan we have in charge for starters!

We need to up our game and expect leaders with gravitas and good leadership and all that.

If Keir Starmer's background passes for upper-middle class, then I think you'd have to consider the UK to be a third-world country.

Zeebeezee · 04/10/2020 20:34

The obsession in the UK about class is unreal.

People just have to achieve and be leaders with a brain and observation.

BJ had nothing to offer us. Sadly.

ElsieMc · 04/10/2020 20:42

Keir Starmer is Mark Darcy and Daniel Cleaver is Boris Johnson. They should have a girly fight in a water fountain. Neither attractive because Mark/Keir is humourless and devoid of emotion and Bojo/Cleaver is manipulative and sexually incontinent.

Whoever mentioned Andy Burnham - what is going on with his eyebrows? Are they waxed or microbladed.

Iamnuts · 04/10/2020 20:43

Yes!

Janevaljane · 04/10/2020 20:44

I think he's repulsive. He gives me that Uncanny valley phenomenon, like he's not quite real.

Janevaljane · 04/10/2020 20:47

@LockdownLump

I can't bear Frankie Boyle, but his description of Starmer was spot on. He look like someone playing the prime minister on a Spice Girls movie.

That's not verbatim, but it something like that.

OMG that's brilliant.
Zeebeezee · 04/10/2020 20:50

So glad I have moved away from UK. Many of you and the so called leaders and the whole Brexit/Covid thing have views that are not good IMV.

Hope it works out, but so glad I'm gone from that toxic place now.

UnshakenNeedsStirring · 04/10/2020 20:50

Hes HOT

CarrotInATree · 04/10/2020 20:57

@Zeebeezee where have you gone where the people all hold good opinions?

VestaTilley · 04/10/2020 20:58

No, he’s got no backbone and is willing to throw women - including his own MPs - under the bus to appease the trans rights activists.

Lolaloveslemonade · 04/10/2020 21:00

YANBU OP. At all.

Crunchymum · 04/10/2020 21:03

@noimkaren

I know too much about him to be anything but repulsed
@noimkaren

Do elaborate.....

randomer · 04/10/2020 21:07

Andy B has nice eyes and a good head of hair. Whats with the eyebrows though?

Keir is nice but maybe ease off the product , the other creature is absolutely vile. Still wondering what Dom has on him , it will be sleaze.

Incrediblytired · 04/10/2020 21:09

I get very Leg rubby about him

Chocolateandamaretto · 04/10/2020 21:15

I like him because he seems like a real human who goes home to his actual family and not some sort of input station where he's pumped full of opinions to spew. I trust him more than I've trusted a party leader for a little while.

I used to find him sexy but agree that his voice is a bit much when you have to hear it regularly!

CrappleUmble · 04/10/2020 21:19

The continued attempts to portray his modest background as something more privileged than it actually was are very telling. I keep seeing it.

And yabu, he is not at all sexy.

CrappleUmble · 04/10/2020 21:22

@Butchyrestingface

If I was forced (at gunpoint), to play Fuck/Marry/Kill involving Keir Starmer, BoJo and Donald Trump, KS would definitely be getting pumped.

In all other circumstances, he is not doing it for me (currently).

Well yeah, but mostly because out of the three of them, he's the only one where you could safely assume he doesn't have an active herpes outbreak.
GeordieRacer · 04/10/2020 21:26

Lovely Keir lovely Starmer. Its the intelligence / decency combo that does it.

RuffleCrow · 04/10/2020 21:35

Yeah he's quite fit as politicians go. And he was sexy enough for Helen Fielding to use him as the inspiration for Mark Darcy in Bridget Jones

elQuintoConyo · 04/10/2020 21:38

Re. the comparison to Kryton: does he need three Polaroids? WinkWinkGrin

GladAllOver · 04/10/2020 21:40

I don't care whether he's considered sexy or repulsive. He has a job to do, getting rid of this awful government, and I hope he can do it.

StoneofDestiny · 04/10/2020 21:47

From a wealthy upper middle class family, would never have got where he is but for that

Rubbish.
His mother was a nurse.
His father was a toolmaker.
He passed his 11+ and got into grammar school. While he was studying there the school went private.
He studied at Leeds Uni and worked his way up to become a QC.

I'd say his background was average, his intelligence and hard work got him where he is.

BrightYellowDaffodil · 04/10/2020 21:48

Hell, yes. I totally would.

GinWithASplashOfTonic · 04/10/2020 21:53

Yes! Especially as in taller his wife is supposed to be the inspector behind Bridget Jones. Therefore, he's the real life Mark Darcey so double swoon
