Starmer thinks I am an enemy of the state

[Bumblebee72]

So we have it Starmer has declared at conference because I support Reform I am now an enemy of his Government.

Who would have thought it, a middle class British worker, now an enemy in the country I was born. And they say Reform is the party of Fascists. Yet we also now have the Home Secretary saying "In solving this crisis, you may not always like what I do. We will have to question some of the assumptions and legal constraints that have lasted for a generation and more". Maybe the Home Secretary too will be deemed an enemy of the state.

Am I being unreasonable to think this should be seen as a rallying cry to get this Government out at the first opportunity.

Exactly.

Oh so you can spout your intolerance but anyone else is not allowed to. So much for free speech. Support a racist party then you support racism.

What does you “being granny to a mixed race child” have to do with the price of milk?

It’s not like you had anything to do with that.

I want to know what part of this the MN Reform supporters disagree with.

I'm an insomniac 🎶 🎵 is going round and round in my head.

Ahhhhhh thanks for that @sunandfizz needed this today.

Because those examples are no more reform policy than anti-semitism is Labour policy. No one seems to like reminding that Starmer had to kick out the more vocal need of labour anti-semits.

Blimey. You lot really don't have a single original thought, do you?

They're Reform policy because you're leader announced them as such.

This made me laugh. Blimey you don’t like the same coming back do you?

Can dish it out and all that.

That is patently ridiculous. Where did you read/hear that?

The bottom line is that Reform are gaining support. People are turning to them because they appear to be listening to their concerns whilst Starmer is not. If you back people into a corner they will take the only way out as they see it and right now that’s Reform. If people really want to avoid that then we need to stop the name calling and actually make an effort to understand where this is coming from and for the majority, it’s not racism it’s fear.

What the country needs form Starmer is confidence. Confidence that he’s looking after his electorate, that he has their best interests at heart and he’s listening to them. Right now he’s not doing a convincing job of any of those things.

I just really can't stand fascists and racists who want to dismantle the NHS and bring back the workhouse. My bad.

Then don't vote Labour. Or are only concerned about non-jewish racism? They are actively destroying the NHS at the moment.

You're aware that the current NHS plan will just entrench privatisation though?

Crikey, aren’t you embarrassed to admit you’re a Reform supporter, OP?? I bloody would be 😂

And action. He is the Prime Minister. People see too concerned about what could happen in the future rather than what is happening now. Reform voters are looking to the future, Labour voters have their fingers in their ears hoping for a miracle.

There is no way I trust in Nigel Farage after Brexit he loves a speech and riling people up but doesn’t want to actually do the work involved to fix anything. I don’t think he even wants to be PM he just wants to ‘win’.

Well at least you have accepted that claiming Starmer called you an enemy of the state was a lie. One step at a time.

No. I'm not. There are already polling at majority of support, and by the next election there will be a landslide.

The people who should be embarrassed at the moment are whose who voted in the current shit show. Nothing can say anything good about what they have done but criticise what someone in the future might do.

It takes time to fix 14 years of cutting public spending.

As of today you can book a GP appointment all day online.

More rights for workers and tenants are coming.
More funding for hospitals will start to show in the next couple of years.
NHS waiting lists are coming down.

But because food costs a fortune (many reasons including price gouging by supermarkets) and wages don't stretch as far as they used to, people think Labour is not doing well.

Reform will never improve this situation. Labour is at least trying.

She was sure to grab the mic when it was time to conclude the Reform conference with the national anthem.

I didn't say that. You clearly like to read whatever fits with your little echo chamber.

Generally even after posts claiming he’s done well his popularity goes down again.

Your unimpeachable source is a letter from a woman in Wirral.

I really hope Reform never attain any sort of real power let alone win the next G E but I sometimes wonder who Farage would put in his cabinet if he does get the keys to No. 10. Skilled and articulate Lee Anderson as Foreign Secretary perhaps or will the post be scrapped because it contains the word "foreign". Tice as Home Secretary even though he spends a significant amount of time in Dubai rather than his home country , maybe they will let Dorries stand for election and celebrate her return to parliament by letting her have her old post of Culture Secretary back. Andrea Jenkyns could return to Education while delighting the country with her musical talents. Of course there will be many unknown faces if they sweep the board as the current polls are predicting so maybe we can look forward to some of the shennagins we are seeing at some of the local councils that are currently run by Reform such as Notts County who are refusing to engage with the local press because they have criticised them
