Backed By Tories - Starmer Is The New Guardian Of The Status Quo

Nye Bevan once said, “what is Toryism but organised spivvery?”.

Quite a few of today’s politicians enter the political arena to ensure life’s riches are preserved exclusively for the few. That’s why the wealthiest will bankroll them.

Sadly, the organised spivvery that Bevan spoke of at the Manchester Labour Rally in July of 1948 has found its new home within Keir Starmer’s Labour Party in January of 2023. 

Don’t get me wrong, the Tories have been at it since dinosaurs roamed freely in Swindon. 

Indeed, if you want to talk about corruption and cronyism in British politics you only need to go back to the arrival of Boris Johnson in 2019 and slowly work your way through the following couple of years. 

The Tories epitomise dodgy deals, job-for-the-boys and blatant corruption. We expect no less from a government that is in danger of having Britain listed as a globally-recognised human rights abusers. 

But do we expect better from the Labour Party? 

Well, no, we don’t, not now, because the Labour Party that we see today shares a political ideology that is more in-tune with conservatism than it ever will be with socialism.  

That still doesn’t make me a Tory for the crime of pointing out that Keir Starmer and a vast majority of his front bench are Tories. 

It’s them that needs to change, not us. 

I did my own little poll this week. The question was simple enough: Do you trust Keir Starmer? 

With just a couple of hours to go and a sample size of more than 12,000, some 69% voted to say they do not trust the disingenuous quisling, Starmer. 

So I ask, why the fuck, Keir Starmer, would we ditch compassion, dignity, justice and unity to slavishly follow this grotesque dog-eat-dog society where keeping up with the Jones’s and boasting about it on Facebook seems to matter more than 1 in 4 NHS hospitals having a food bank on site for their staff to use? 

But why would Keir Starmer and his shadow Health Secretary, Wes Screeching - both funded by a private healthcare investor - give two hoots about underpaid and undervalued nurses using on-site food bank facilities when the Labour Party’s primary function will be to deliver vast wealth to shareholders before good health to long-suffering patients? 

Does this sound like I’m describing the Tories? 

I am. Just the ones that have hijacked the soul of the Labour Party upon their journey towards the high offices of power without the necessity of principles. 

The colour of the rosette is designed to make you think they are hugely different, and sure, the Labour Party may well call you an ambulance after they have broken your legs, whereas the Tories will stop the ambulance from getting to you so they can declare you fit for work. 

If you still find yourself supporting Keir Starmer I can only assume you think he is the lesser of two evils, and you may well have a fair point, because these horrendously painful last 13 years will take some beating. 

But I ask you just to consider this: if you are jumping into bed with the Labour Party, simply because they are not the Conservatives, who will you wake up next to in the morning? 

Former Tony Blair adviser John McTernan claims that “Thatcherites are safe to come home to the Labour Party”. 

Nice friends you’ve got there. 

Even 25% of hardened Tory voters said they would be satisfied with a Labour government with Keir Starmer at the helm, and only half of Tory voters would be unhappy if Labour won the next election. 

I wonder why? 

Another one of your new bedfellows is the former Tory minister Claire Perry - she has abandoned the Tories and praised the Labour leader’s “sober, fact-driven, competent political leadership”. 

I’ll keep going. 

Just last year, Christian Wakeford - the Tory MP for Bury South - was welcomed into the Labour Party with open arms, while socialists were (and still are) being purged from the party. 

And there’s no room for Jeremy Corbyn? 

Have you seen who is funding Keir Starmer’s Labour Party these days? I’m old enough to remember the days when we funded them because we were the biggest political party in Europe. 

But today’s Labour Party and it’s MPs are funded by former Conservative party donors who will undoubtedly expect access and influence for their sizeable investment. 

For example, John Armitage, who founded Egerton Capital, ended his association with the Conservatives in 2020 after donating £3.1 million to the Tories and has since made several donations to Labour. 

Super-loaded Mr Armitage - worth a mere £600 million - has given £12,500 to Keir Starmer, £15,000 to shadow health secretary, Wes Screeching, and £12,500 to the party itself. 

Another multi-millionaire, a chap named Gareth Quarry, previously funded the Tories under the leadership of David Cameron and Theresa May.

But Mr Quarry has ditched the Tories and joined Keir Starmer’s Labour Party with an initial donation of £100,000, describing them as a “left-of-centre alliance”. 

Do you like your new Tory friends? I’m not done. 

‘Wake up Maggie’ crooner, Rod Stewart, has also dumped his beloved Tories. 

The gravel-throated multi-millionaire and knight of the realm said, “I personally have been a Tory for a long time, but I think this Government should stand down now and give the Labour Party a go at it”. 

What next? Jim Davidson doing a tour of seaside venues with all profits going to the office of Keir Starmer?

If any greater power is reading this perhaps they can ask Cilla Black, Peter Stringfellow, and Paul Daniels if they would like to support Keir Starmer too? 

That Ken Barlow hasn’t had much to say of late. Don’t think we haven’t noticed you, Ken. 

And for the final endorsement from hell, dear Starmer supporters, what do you think about waking up next to a vile barrel of pig shit such as Jeremy Clarkson? 

Starmer was delighted with the endorsement from the bloke that once described him as “Sir Lego Head” and an “idiot”, because it showed how much the Labour Party has changed. 

They’ve changed alright, we’re in no doubt of that. But changing to become more like the Tories isn’t really the sort of change we need after 13 long years of Tory mismanagement, obviously. 

One day many will hang their heads in shame when they realise the obvious evil they defended and the heroes they ridiculed. 

But in the meantime we have to sit by and watch this never ending transition of power from one part of the elite to another while some ex-Lib Dem Starmer Stan tells us we’re Tories for not choosing between the lesser of two Tories to usher in yet another Tory government. 

So, Tory voters, Tory ministers, Tory MPs, Tory celebrities, and even mega-rich Tory donors are queuing up to give their support to the lifeless lump of luncheon meat Starmer, and you have the nerve to tell us to join the queue? 

Remember, my friends, if it looks like a Tory, talks like a Tory, and acts like a Tory, then it probably is a Tory.

Until next time,
