Starmer sounds deranged at PMQs

[Dragonflytamer]

Stamer's lost it. He sounds like an angry lunatic in response to questions.

Tories need to keep starmer in please, no death blows from them thank you. Miliband or Rayner would be even worse.

To be fair, the Lib Dems have had a few nonces in their midst and still do.

Yes, I’m glad that Labour leader berk from Scotland was shown up as a damp squib.

Tories were awful but Labour are the worst government I have lived through. I couldn't believe anything could be worse than the last lot but the Labour party are killing the economy, it's fucking awful. My brothers are accountants and know lots of people closing doors/letting staff go, worse than 2008.

It used to be more fun when it was twice a week.

Exactly this. Didn't think it could get worse.

It did

I was really hoping Starmer would bring professionalism to the role. Dull and reliable would have been fairly good for a few years, after the Tory Chaos. We were meant to be leaving the period of scandal behind. But he has turned out to be dull and directionless.

As someone who has never supported the party or the man -in the last 48 hours I have realised there is NO ONE else . So I really hope he survives.

It is true, however it appears that nobody recognises the jam that has been provided today. I know everyone has their own priority list, so get focused on what is important to them, but I do think that any balanced argument should state the positives as well as the negatives.

Personally, I would like a return to conviction politics. You can keep some of the people happy some of the time, but you can't keep all the people happy all of the time. All the indecision is driving me nuts. Just get on with it. Even if you piss people off along the way, progress that is substantive is usually beneficial.

It’s a case of if you don’t want a Labour government- then he’s lost it and shouty. If you do - then he’s passionate and heard.

I mean the rise of the right and reform leans more to male white leaders and people (especially women) of colour are viewed (unfairly) as part of a diversity push. It doesn’t win votes. It’s not what the traditional Tory vote wants, to be frank. I think Labour etc have also twigged this. We’re living in archly more race conscious times.

That pretty much sums it up! 😊

I disagree, otherwise she wouldn’t poll better than all the male white leaders when asked who you’d prefer as PM.

The Conservative membership also voted her in. Other parties might have more issues about men and being white but it wasn’t an issue.

I heard on the radio around the time of the budget that the claims about lifting kids out of poverty is a fudge in that it’s actually the benchmark for poverty that’s dropped as a result of a drop in average income or disposable income or some such. I’m no statistician and I’m not going to go digging around for a source before you come at me. But I don’t believe Labour to be any more above fiddling with statistics to tell a good story than any other party.

I think Kemi is coming into her stride . I didn’t hear her today but last week she certainly gets her point across in a calm measured way . No need for ranting and raving tbh . Stalmer puts himself in these silly situations through sheer stupidity. In his defence maybe he’s just someone who finds the good in people and sadly they let him down.

Agree with this. It’s predominantly Labour that’s identity obsessed and likely to discriminate against a leader on sex and race.

Yes. He sounded completely unhinged when he started yelling at Davey. Even Davey looked shocked and after a breath managed to respond that he had clearly touched a nerve. But he was right, promoting one nonce fancier is incompetence but to do it again is a pattern.

And it's one that speaks volumes, once again, about what Labour really thinks about violence against women and children. And how they much prefer the rhetoric than anything that might inconvenience their ambitions.

According to recent polls Kemi is winning all the party leader head to heads

He’s losing it. He knows his time is almost up.

He needs to go on his own account before more of the guys around him are proven linked to Epstein or have been selling sensitive information about the country.
He is a poor judge of character. That the closest to him are falling like lead stones is not acceptable. He knew Mandelson had not been granted clearance by MI6. He just went ahead and did name him ambassador. Same for the other cronies. He is not a leader strong enough to drive UK through all this. He is not much of a leader, but an easy push over, actually. He may have some strings these men were pulling at, because why would he do what he did?!?@? It is just plain stupid. And he will destroy Labour if he stays and more rubbish is found hidden underneath a rug, or an offshore bank account.....

Yes but not much competition but I get your point.

If I were Labour I’d get Andy Burnham in quick as he has charisma and appeals to a broad base. I’d definitely avoid any diversity push at this time though.

Do you think the Tories have any chance to ever win an election again? Because, to me, as a party with the recent history that unveiled under our eyes just a few years back, there is no way they make a return. For me, Boris and reminder of PMs the Tory party produced managed to kill the party itself. Nevermind how good or bad their new leader is.
And Starmer will do the same to Labour, for the look of it!

Oh for goodness sake. Its getting tedious now.

I do want a Labour government, but cannot find a drop of passion in Starmer!
He is a shite leader, let's face it....

Absolutely. It is just like when Boris was in his dying days. Hopefully he will do the right thing and resign.
