Sir Kier Starmer is a shining light amongst the crap that is current Labour party yet he's as dull as ditch water and another progressive Islington set leftie. Not exactly what the rest of the country is looking to for leadership unless you live on social media.

It'll all end in what the Party would call a disaster but something which I'd call a resounding success.

I think they'd be very pleased to improve their credibility to the level of disaster .

The Starmer

a clear and present danger

Decided not to prosecute John Worboys for 75 sex assaults
Yet spent four years failing to prosecute 23 Sun journalists
Insisted on prosecuting Paul Chambers for making a light-hearted joke on social media (the infamous Twitter joke trial)
Failed to build a case against Jimmy Savile and forced to apologise after being damned by report into failings
Repeatedly championed the innocence of convicted murder who later admitted that he was actually guilty
Failed to prosecute police officer who killed newspaper vendor Ian Tomlinson
Ordered the CPS in Wales to drop the prosecution of a primary school teacher who had been accused of sexting a 16 year old boy, who went on to commit suicide
Damning report into Starmer’s tenure at the CPS showed it was performing well below the necessary standard, with the report attributing part of the blame to a ‘overload of initiatives’ from the CPS’ national leadership
Survey of CPS staff found that just 12% of them thought that the organisation was being well managed under Starmer’s leadership
Accused of reopening a spurious sex abuse case involving a friend of Tom Watson – the accused was cleared in an hour
Chose not to prosecute two doctors accused of carrying out abortions on grounds of gender

...and would most likely apply to rejoin the EU WITHOUT a referendum if given the power to do so.
Even if it means adopting the Euro as currency.

What does his front garden look like? If it's tidier than comrade Corbyn's he's alright.

Do you know that, AB, or is that more conjecture?

Just recognise a snake in the grass when I see one. I saw one in 1997 too.

I might be small minded with this but I can't get beyond the 'sir' so blissful ignorance is kind of a thing worth achieving I fancy. Peace and goodwill to all. Actually I don't even know what he sounds like so I'm doing well.
'Sir' .. no sir NOT AT ALL !!!

Well all Labour politicians are shit at their jobs anyway, but in public office you should be taking a bit of pride in your appearance. As for Lammy, I thought you'd be against racists being appointed.
