Magic Stepdad Starmer: Scared of NIP And Lost His Grip
“Magic stepdad?”, I hear you say. Yes, magic stepdad - or magic stepdad Keith. The possibilities are endless.
I’ve still got a few friends within the Labour Party. Some are closer than others, some of them are nearer to the ‘soft left’, and some are closer to the ‘extremity’ that is democratic socialism. I love to catch up with them from time to time because once you get past the pleasantries you get a better understanding of what magic stepdad Keith is getting up to, or what he isn’t.
The press, the commentariat, the centrist dads, the Karen’s, the Tories, the patriarchal Mail-reading, Twitter-lurking, attention-starved Elaine’s, the z-list celebrities with the sudden political conscience - they call us “hard-left”, or “far-left” - but when you ask them to start listing the hard-left policies that they believe you stand for, what happens?
They go quieter than Keir Starmer during a national crisis.
What’s “hard-left” about believing our NHS should be owned by the public, for the public?
Oi, Bevan, stop building those hospitals you hard-leftist.
What’s “hard-left” about thinking we shouldn’t have more than a million families in need of a council house? We still call them council houses over on the “hard-left”.
Oi, Attlee, stop building those council estates you far-leftist.
What’s “hard-left” about having a foreign policy that puts dialogue before the lust to maim and kill innocent human beings? Whether it be in Palestine, Saudi Arabia, China, Russia, Iran, or Bristol.
Oi, Corbyn, stop talking the language of peace, you hard-left, antisemite, terrorist sympathiser, baby-eating anti-Christ.
I think you get the idea.
Those who dare to dream are an enemy of the establishment. Aspiration belongs to the middle classes. We are spoon-fed by the state to believe our children do not deserve the same opportunities and privileges as their children. Socialism is the only known vaccine to the poisons of neoliberalism.
If being labelled “hard-left” means I can have the same dreams for my children as Mr and Mrs Posh and full of dosh from SW10 then I’ll take the label, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and twice on a Sunday.
If you want to call me an “antisemite” because i believe *every* child has the right to grow up with access to clean running water, a stable supply of electricity, a roof over their heads, and without the fear of a bomb ripping through their house as they sleep, then so be it. This makes me pro-human. War is a choice.
Have you ever done a school run with guns pointed at you? Nor me.
Magic stepdads war with the Labour left is possibly going to cost him the constituency of Hartlepool on May 6th, and he will only have himself to blame.
The Northern Independence Party have democratically selected their candidate for Hartlepool - take note Keith - and that candidate is the former Labour MP, Thelma Walker.
Thelma is a principled socialist, and was a supporter of Jeremy Corbyn. She is standing on a socialist ticket, for a democratically socialist party.
Labour have spent much of this week mocking the Northern Independence Party (NIP) - who would’ve thought a few London-based SpAds could be *this* offended by a whippet?
I’m slowly coming round to the theory of Starmer being sent in to destroy the Labour Party for good. There is no other rational explanation for his awfulness.
Don’t forget, it was Starmer himself that pressed the button in 2018 when he betrayed millions of 2017 Labour voters, hundreds of thousands of Labour Party members, and the former Party leadership with his “nobody is ruling out campaigning for Remain in a public vote” sabotage. From that moment, Labour were screwed, and that bastard knew it. He gave the press the “Labour is a remain Party” headline that they desired, and his own personal quest for leadership of a socially conservative Labour Party began.
If you Manic Keith Preachers tell me I’m a Tory enabler you didn’t read that last paragraph correctly, and don’t be complaining when I tell you to fuck off, because I wouldn’t be sat here now whining about your Magic Stepdad had he not committed this act of abominable treachery.
The latest poll I have seen suggests MSK (Magic Stepdad Keith) is some ten points behind the worst government in living memory. The charisma-free Keith insists this is down to a “vaccine bounce”, and has nothing to do with the fact that he is utterly shit.
This latest embarrassment leaves Labour some thirty points adrift of the promised land of twenty points ahead with anyone but Corbyn. He’s had a year now, a whole year, and even now they’re still blaming Jeremy Corbyn for the flaccid Starmer. It just doesn’t wash I’m afraid.
May the 6th is judgement day for Starmer. However they try and spin it, anything less than massive gains and a comfortably-held Hartlepool is an absolute disaster.
He has had a whole year to tell us what he stands for, and what do we know about him? Nothing pleasant whatsoever. He’s a defender of the status quo. Whatever you want, whatever you like, whatever you say, you pay your money, you take your choice.
His focus groups tell him to focus on patriotism, rather than poverty. If Starmer had a good idea of his own it would simply be down to beginners luck.
We warned Starmer, not just me, but we. We told him he was starting an unwinnable war, but Team Starmer told their boss to flatten us. Starmer’s decline in the polls began shortly after the suspension of Jeremy Corbyn.
The Labour Party of today should know better than anyone: a divided party will not win an election, no matter how sharp the leader's suit might be.
They told you to “fuck off” out of their party and join another. Many of you have chosen to do exactly that, and joined smaller socialist Party’s, such as NIP. And what do they call you?
Traitors.
And that, my friends, is the level of disingenuous hypocrisy of this version of the Labour Party.
Have your war, magic stepdad, you cannot blame Jeremy Corbyn for your impending disaster, Mr Starmer, we won’t let you, trust me.
What do we have to lose? We are just a small, but important part of the struggle - a struggle that has been fought for generations.
Starmer and his team are said to be “fucking well terrified”, and so they fucking well should be.
We’re not going away.

Thank you for taking the time to read my thoughts, if you want to chip in towards improving my ongoing campaign, and it would cause you *no hardship*, you can do so here:
Was it not former Hartlepool MP and spawn of satan Lord Peter Mandleson who famously said of the working classes "they've got no-one else to vote for" while famously pitching to mondeo man in the 90's? By the same token the new labour project / starmtroopers have always taken the votes of the socialist left for granted and again he's being proved wrong. In the famous words of Taylor Swift "we are nether ever ever getting back together"
ReplyDeleteMandelson went into a chip shop in Hartlepool pointed at the mushy peas, and asked if they were guacamole,
DeleteBeen waiting for this and its something i have been banging on about since Corbyn stood down.
ReplyDeleteLabour need a clear out once and for all and the only way to do that is give a proper socialist option on the election ticket. Hopefully more Socialist candidates will stand nationally and make it happen
