Do You Really Trust Keir Starmer And The Labour Party? I don’t

 

Let’s ask some questions about trust. 

Do you really trust the Labour Party to ensure your NHS is given the staff and funding that it needs to operate safely and effectively when Keir Starmer and Wes Streeting receive funding from private healthcare donors? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to build more social housing and put a roof over the heads of 230,000 people who are currently without a place they are able to call home? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to heavily invest in social care, ensuring dignity for each and every one of us when we need it the most? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to stand up to aggressive rogue states inflicting destitution, oppression, and death upon the people of the land that the occupiers have illegally seized, unless the victims promise to fight a war with Putin on your behalf? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to significantly reduce the cost of living that is forcing people to make the horrendous choice between heating and eating? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to ditch the energy firms that have left us with the most expensive electricity bills IN THE WORLD? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to throw their protective arms around the poorest and most vulnerable in our society and show a level of compassion that is alien to the Tory government? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party - now funded by Tory donors - to end the cronyism and corruption that has been synonymous with the last thirteen years of Conservative rule? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to honour any of the infamous ten pledges put forward by Keir Starmer when he was running for the party leadership, three years ago? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to stand by the working classes that haven’t seen a meaningful pay rise for as long as they can remember? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to bring rail, mail, energy and water into public ownership? For example, privatisation is supposed to offer the customer a greater choice, but do you get to choose who supplies your water? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party not to use what is left of our public services as new New Labour siphoning mechanisms for their obscenely-wealthy friends and donors in the private sector? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to introduce the necessary media reforms that will deliver a democratised BBC and an end to the Murdoch media monopoly when Starmer and members of his shadow cabinet regularly write for the right-wing S*n and Daily Mail tabloids? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to reign in the thriving arms trade, stop selling weapons of mass death to terrorist states, and put food for British children ahead of bombs for Ukrainian fighter jets? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to aspire to a society of where a handful of billionaires no longer own more than half of the wealth of an entire nation? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to introduce a real living wage of at least £15 an hour and to ensure the fundamental rights of workers are not weakened, but strengthened? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to prioritise the welfare of a broken nation in need before the repugnant and immoral spectacle of unlimited corporate greed? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to return to its democratic socialist values when it has quite clearly parked its tanks on Tory lawns and is showing absolutely no signs of retreat? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to end the Work Capability Assessment, scrap Universal Credit in its current guise, and end the greed of the private landlord looking to extort the state for every possible penny when 18 Labour MPs are landlords themselves? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to fight the hatred of racism wherever it rears its ugly head when the Labour Party itself created a hierarchy of racism that discriminated against Black, Asian and Muslim party members? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to focus on exposing the damning truth of the Tory ideology that they demonstrably aspire to when they seem considerably more at ease spewing out discredited right-wing lies about antisemitism and Jeremy Corbyn? I don’t.

Do you really trust the Labour Party to move away from the Tories politics of hatred towards refugees and ditch any policies that even remotely resemble the Rwanda deportation schemes while Starmer is desperately appealing to the flag vote to sweep him into power? I don’t.

I have absolutely no faith in the Labour Party in the same way I have absolutely no faith in the Conservatives. It’s business-as-usual, regardless of who is in government.

I used to think any Labour government would be better than a Conservative government, but all I can see now are two ideologically compatible circuses where the clowns get the greatest say in what happens. 

Lots of people willing to give their vote to Starmer’s Labour are the same people that gifted Tony Blair a landslide victory in 1997. 

A mistake repeated more than once is a choice.

They see Starmer as the lesser of two evils. I see the lesser of two evils as still being evil. 

The electorate are sick of the Tories, much like they were in 1997, and this is the only way Keir Starmer can beat the Tories at the next general election. 

You didn't think Labour’s poll lead was down to Starmer’s must-have charisma and his ambitious plans for Britain in a post-Tory world, did you? 

Labour absolutely have the right to call themselves the official opposition, but it doesn’t feel like they are opposing a great deal. It’s us opposing them - the capitalists.

Sure, Labour will tinker around the edges, paint a blue policy in red and call it “transformative”, and Starmer will commit to all sorts of wishy-washy liberal nonsense to appease the wealth hoarders that piggybacked Labour into power. 

But me? I really don’t trust the Labour Party because the indisputable evidence is there for everyone to see. 

This toxic version of the Labour Party cannot and must not be trusted. Keir Starmer is an absolute fraud.

Until next time, 

Rachael

Starmer Has Sold Labour’s Soul To The Billionaire Media

Image
Sometimes I listen to a bit of commercial radio on a Friday and a Saturday evening. The presenter's name is Nick Abbot, he’s a genuinely funny man and holds many views that would resonate with the vast majority of you that are reading this now.  But Abbot does have a bit of a blind spot when it comes to Keir Starmer - despite being a regular defender of Jeremy Corbyn - because he views Starmer as the lesser of two evils rather than what he is: a Tory in a red tie with the charm of a Betterware catalogue. Just last week Abbot almost sounded surprised when he described Starmer as positioning himself  “to the right” of the Tories on immigration.  So I’m wondering what he will have to say about Starmer’s Damascus-like conversion to making Brexit work?  I have always insisted Keir Starmer supported the second referendum campaign so he could use the People’s Vote Ltd nonsense as a Trojan horse to screw over Jeremy Corbyn and claim the leadership for himself and all those that line his po

Keir Starmer Is The Most Deceitful Labour Leader For A Generation

Image
The entirely necessary death of the Conservative party would undoubtedly be so much more congenial if Keir Starmer’s Labour party didn’t spend their time trying to out-Tory the fucking Tories. “But they’re not”, scream the Starmer Stans, knowingly peddling the lies of the establishment favourite and co-defendant of the billionaire media.  Is red authoritarianism more alluring than blue authoritarianism? Is it okay for your right to protest to vanish into thin air because the instigator is carrying a red shroud? Jesus fucking wept. How about your NHS? Privatisation on steroids is acceptable if the seller has a red podium in front of a Union flag instead of a blue one? Fuck your “difficult decisions”, the NHS belongs to us. A liar is still a liar, whether their name is Starmer, Sunak, or Johnson. When your ears hear one thing but your eyes see another you are being lied to.  Starmer is an ideal political leader for the times. He jumps on every passing bandwagon and he will tell anybody a

“Why Are You Employing Tory Policies To Deal With A Tory Crisis?”

It wasn’t really a “shadow cabinet reshuffle”, was it?  I know that’s what the mainstream propaganda called it, but they also called Boris Johnson the greatest Prime Minister since Churchill and Liz Truss a safe pair of hands after the dethroning of the aforementioned  The obsequious lickspittle Starmer should remain on his knees to give thanks to Johnson and Truss because they are the only reasons why he will form the next government.  Surely you didn’t think it was servile Starmer’s complete lack of principles, his marshmallow backbone, and his vuvuzela-like tones that look set to deliver a thumping Labour majority next year, right?  I put myself through the misery of listening to an LBC phone-in with Iain Dale and Rachel Reeves the other day, I’m sure lots of you did too… But one particular caller made the entire 45 minutes worth listening to when he asked Reeves, “why are you employing Tory policies to deal with a Tory crisis?”.  Reeves, along with temporary leader Starmer have mo
