Sir Keir Starmer in his own words He’ll drive through whatever, regardless of infrastructure, regardless of local services, regardless of the impact 🏙️ Huge developments driven through with no local input at all ⚡️ Massive 160ft Pylons outside your window rather than Conservatives manifesto commitment to drive for underground...

@Keir_Starmer Keir is right on this, the UK has far too many NIMBYs that block houses, hospitals, roads, runways, reservoirs, pylons, masts — you name it. This is bad as it stifles economic growth and makes the UK less resilient.

Powerful people from all parties failed to protect girls like me from being raped and abused. But Labour were worst of all. It was in Labour-led Telford where I was asked by a CSE detective if I had “consented to sexual activity” at any point. It was local Labour politicians that called Pakistani-Muslim grooming gang survivors “paki shaggers” and “white slags”. It was in Labour-run Rochdale and Rotherham where local services turned little girls away and handed them straight back to their abusers because they didn’t want to be called racist. Labour councils. Labour politicians. Labour councillors. Labour-led local authorities. Labour-controlled police forces. So long as Labour is the sole leader of the National Grooming Gangs Inquiry, there is no chance of justice or change. The appointment of a Labour Peer with no legal experience to chair an investigation into the worst legal and systemic failure this country has ever seen? It’s a farce. Labour cannot be the face of justice. Not when they were the architects of the very atrocities we are fighting to expose. Nothing will change, nothing will get better, and we will be letting Labour mark their own homework and sweep their corruption under the rug with the veneer of an “impartial inquiry”. The only way the inquiry stands a chance of succeeding is if Reform, the Tories, survivors, apolitical experts, whistleblowers and legal professionals are given a seat at the table. And the only way that will happen is by tearing up their current “plan” and starting from scratch. Without Labour at the helm. It must be cross-party. It must be expert and survivor-led. And, most importantly, it must be free from the Labour Party’s iron grip.

Keir Starmer trying to rationalise cuts to the Winter Fuel Allowance and cuts to Disability Benefits Sorry, but when Labour's own impact assessment shows that pensioners will be pushed into poverty, or that disabled people will be put in poverty, by applying either of those policies, you don't carry on with them, you find a better way And the shame of Labour putting the burden on poor old pensioners and the disabled instead of balancing the books with a wealth tax on those with £10m+ whose quality of life would not be impacted by a wealth that, it's disgraceful Should millionaires get the winter fuel allowance? No But does that mean we take it away from the poorest pensioners? Also no Should disabled people be denied the opportunity to work if they can or wish to? No But does that mean you start cutting disability benefits putting them into poverty? No Whoever is advising Labour is doing a very bad job, because the solutions are easier First fix the threshold for WFA and make sure no elderly person loses out, then apply the changes First start providing support services to disabled people who can and would like to work, and when their income reaches above a certain threshold then phase out disability support It's not rocket science, its policy with compassion and with simple principles We all know the Conservatives left a mess, but we don't clean up that mess by targeting the old and the disabled Whatever bubble Keir Starmer is in, I hope he steps out of it before it's too late And that includes finding a backbone and calling our Israel for murdering hundreds of Palestinians, shooting them, while they queue up for food Keir Starmer's silence on Israel's war crimes, and the admission of ethnic cleansing by Israeli politicians, really is such a let down Labour are meant to be the better party - but some of their actions up until now are disgraceful, heartless and cruel I didn't expect us to be in this situation a year into a Labour government, yet here we are Snap out of it Labour and do better, you're letting the country down

Left: Keir Starmer, "We risk becoming an island of strangers" Right: Some of the anti immigrant nonsense Enoch Powell spoke in 1968, which is what Starmer's 'island of strangers' reminded me of I don't believe for a moment that Keir Starmer is anti-immigrant or racist, in fact I'm fairly sure he's pro immigration, pro diversity, pro just being a normal decent human being But this policy from Labour is designed to appeal to the populist far right, which means that instead of speaking up for migrants he will find ways to directly and indirectly criticise migrants or even blame migrants for the lack of housing and services which he did today And if he's cheap enough to do that, then he can rightly take his place alongside others who demonise migrants - shame on them The worst part of all of this is that they sat in a room, came up with this policy, thought it was a good enough idea and went with it - Keir Starmer's Labour continues to be a massive disappointment And as a son of migrants who moved to the UK, worked in the NHS, I'm disgusted that our prime minister has chosen to court far right talking points We all know how disgusting so many Conservatives have been, shamelessly exploiting public opinion to seek office I'm not a Labour voter but I really expected so much more from Keir Starmer and Labour Keir Starmer's speech today has made him just as awful as Boris Johnson, and I'm really disappointed that our Prime Minister has to behave this way to address the issue of migration

The former RMT General Secretary Mick Lynch warned people about #KeirStarmer before the election. Most of the media laughed it off. Many in Labour dismissed him. But he understood exactly what Starmer represented. Lynch said Starmer’s Labour was managerial, not political. A party run by lawyers, advisors, and communications professionals rather than people rooted in labour history, trade unions, industry, or working-class communities. A party that believed in management, not representation. Stability, not change. Administration, not politics. He warned that if Starmer won, Labour would not govern as a movement, but as a management team. If anything, Lynch understated it. What we have seen is not a political Prime Minister but an administrative one. Government by briefing note, by focus group, by legal framing rather than political vision. A Labour Party reshaped from a political movement into something closer to a corporate structure with MPs. Under Starmer, Labour has been changed more fundamentally than even under Blair. Blair at least had a political project. Starmer’s project has been control. Centralise the party. Remove internal opposition. Sideline unions. Purge members. Control candidate selection. Control messaging. Control policy. The result is a Labour Party that is now barely recognisable as a working-class party, and barely recognisable even as a democratic political party. It behaves more like an administrative arm of the state than a movement representing the people. Alongside this has come something else that should worry anyone who cares about civil liberties. Expanding surveillance powers. Restrictions on protest. Speech laws framed as safety. Increasing police powers. More powers for the state, fewer rights for the citizen. All passed in the language of responsibility and stability. This is managerial politics. Not leadership, not representation, not democracy in the traditional labour movement sense. Management of the population. Management of expectations. Management of decline. Mick Lynch saw a managerial Labour Party coming. What he didn’t see was a Labour Party rebuilt as a machine: centrally controlled, staffed with loyalists, a government with authoritarian instincts and no roots in the labour movement at all, parachuting in MPs with little to no experience outside political offices, hand-picked acolytes from outfits like Labour Together, selected not for independence or service to their communities, but for loyalty to the leadership. MPs whose first duty is not to their constituents, not to their country, but to the party machine and the people who control it. Labour didn’t win power for the people. Starmer won power for the global oligarchy and that little club he's been a member of since 2019... Paul Knaggs , Labour Heartlands

Left: Wes Streeting and Keir Starmer make the BMA doctors strike about pay Right: Susanna Reid, "More than half of year 2 doctors have no job to go to next month" Labour are pitting the public against doctors on the grounds of pay, when the strikes are about more than pay, they're about the lack of jobs for doctors In this case, it's a lack of jobs in hospitals. But it's also about a lack of GP jobs, because Wes Streeting has limited the ability of GP practices to hire more GPs (while giving them budgets to hire other staff) We have a shortage of hospital doctors, we have a shortage of GP doctors, and it is Labour policy under Keir Starmer and Wes Streeting has worsened this problem The worst part, Streeting and Starmer both using the rise in flu cases to suggest that strain in hospitals is the doctors fault But when you look at the data, there have been nearly 1,000,000 patients treated in corridors this year It didn't just happen overnight, Labour, like the Conservatives before them, continue to underfund the NHS And with at least 10% of the NHS budget goes to private contracts, instead of investing in the NHS, by using private services, Labour continue to spend more on private health services than on the NHS: how is it efficient to pay more for the same service? Sorry Labour voters, but if you go with the line it's all about pay, you're missing the bigger picture, and you're putting your loyalty towards Starmer and Streeting who are misrepresenting what's going on, and distrusting the very people who spend their entire lives looking after other people, doctors
