Keir Starmer ignoring Mother's Day

[DangerQuakeRhinoSnake]

AIBU to think it's a bit of a glaring omission?

Nothing on Twix today except something about Ramadan, and an RT about Myanmar.

Lots of upset on there about him ignoring Lent too.

It's probably too late to expect anything now.

What's his objective here? It feels so... deliberate. And bizarre.

Fully expecting some to accuse me of dog whistling. But I'd still be interested in why they think he's done it.

This is tedious manufactured culture war bollocks being stirred up by people whose sole motivation is rage that Starmer wished Muslims a happy Eid.

I care more that the PM doesn't care about being a competent leader protecting the public's interest. He could come out and tell all mothers to f off and I wouldn't mind, if he also brought prices down and improved public services

Are you insane? 😂😂😂

How do you do Twitter properly?
I've never read such utter tripe. He's the bloody PM not the nations agony aunt.

The dog whistle worked OP.

The most bizarre thing about this thread is that it isn't the most bizarre Mother's Day thread of the day.

…and there is no such thing as “Happy Lent” .. as a Catholic, and one who actually attends church, I don’t expect anyone to greet me with “Happy Lent” “Happy Ash Wednesday” “Happy Palm Sunday” or anything else.

I don’t remember Boris Johnson posting about Mother’s Day.

Then again, he’d made so many women mothers that he must struggle to keep track.

Yeah I do agree with that!

Why would he say anything about Lent when it's still happening? Are you also going to start a thread about the mosque 'in the Lake District'???

…and the kind of made up, trolling, Bullshit of the OP, is the reason I left Twitter in the first place. Manufacture outrage

Oh dear, another right-wing snowflake indulging in performative offence-taking. You’ve really embarrassed yourself, OP.

Maybe check to see for yourself if something is true before letting yourself get riled up by Elon’s mob in the future, eh?

If he's not going to do Twitter properly he should probably leave. What could be the aim of feeding different platforms different content?

Ah, you are a yes-butter.

(Everyone: He did acknowledge it. Look. Here.
You. Yes, but...)

Interesting that some posters feel he's deliberately trying to wind up X users (or his people are, at any rate).

Feels like a strange game for a PM to play if so, don't you think?

It’s only really you who thinks that. Hard to admit you’re wrong though isn’t it?

Glad everyone can see how hate gets stirred up.

I've just checked his Instagram, he didn't even mention pancake day either. Was too busy hobnobbing with the cast of Gavin and Stacey.

Genuinely what difference does a Twitter post about Mother’s Day make to your life? I really don’t understand how such a non issue can matter so much to you

Nit sure why they’re expected to mention anything that’s a made up day

Are people actually still doing Twitter any more?

I bloody well hope Keir personally X's about South Mondovia independence day tomorrow or I'm definitely voting Reform.

Who (other than you) thinks he trying to deliberately wind people on Twitter up?

Maybe he’s too busy missing his dead Mum today, to be worrying over a load of tin-foil hat wearing, basement dwelling, conspiracy theorists.

YANBU OP. He's a miserable little pipsqueak

I don't think he's the one playing games.

To answer the question (and sorry to single anyone out) this is the post that refs trying to wind up X users. Did not come from me!

Ive seen A photo of him with his mum Dad And wife today with a message about mothers day I'm sure ?
