Class. I was planning to post that here too. Is that what Americans call a roast?

That's Angela Rayner gone. Shame but no choice under the circumstances.

Still it opens up an unexpected deputy leadership election - an unexpected chance for the members to have a say. We'll see if any left-inclined members remain (other than myself). To be honest, the only reason I remained in the party is the chance to vote for leader . . . sadly this is only deputy but that will have to do for now.

Hope Clive Lewis runs. Knowing my luck, Streeting will win.

There are still advocates for Civil Rights here. Fuck Farage and his Florida tan.

Starmer, or Badenoch for that matter, now some some perfect ammunition to fire at Farage if they wish to do so. The word traitor is apparently trending on social media after Farage called for sanctions against his own country. That, and his love for Putin, are areas that don’t connect well with general public views.

Just Nigel Farage publicly owning that he really doesn't want to be an MP, shouldn't be an MP, shouldn't be drawing a salary as an MP, and that the best thing for everyone would be if he resigned and allowed a bye-election.

Good old British checks cheques and balances.

Just in case there was any danger of thinking Peter Mandelson was a decent human being . . . the Epstein connection:

Starmer's stitch up of the Labour party election rules is working a treat.

I am still a member of this centre-right, former socialist party. The only reason I'm still here is to vote for Starmer's successor when he eventually fucks off. However, if this deputy leadership election is anything to go by I'll have a choice of Wes Streeting and Yvette Cooper. Or maybe just Wes Streeting.

So I'm tempted to leave. But then that's exactly what Starmer would want, all left-wing members leaving.

This is lunacy. But anything to chase those reform voters who will never vote Labour.

Interesting developments for Starmer from the world of football.

So it isn't just the pro-Palestine marchers who call him a wanker.
