Keir Starmer urged to raise human rights on Saudi investment trip

14 comments

1. What is he listening to?

2. They won’t listen, after all they hold the cash that he wants them to invest.

3. Before or after he begs for money?

4. Starmer: Can you implement some human rights?

   Saudis: hmmmmm…… no.

   Starmer: oh, ok.

5. If the government was really worried about human lives they’d stop giving them money or selling military equipment to them.

6. Keir Starmer talking about human rights??? Ahahahahahahahhaha

   How would he keep a straight face

7. He won’t do . He only brings up human rights in his enemies not his allies.

8. Do you want investment, or do you want Saudi Arabia to reform human rights. You can only ask for one.

   Also, they’re not going to do the second even if you ask.

9. If he had any morals, he’d ask them to implement human rights laws & if they refused, he’d go elsewhere. We need to avoid oil & invest in renewable energy.

10. Yeah yeah…human rights…Western leaders….the World is listening….

11. Haha. No way will he do that.

13. I’m sure it’s something else that makes Starmer angry, that he will do nothing about.

    He really is a wet cloth.

14. Honestly, no time like the present to give a little nudge. Saudi is trying to globalise like never before and reach out to the world.

    I mean, they have specifically welcomed LGBTQ+ people on their Saudi Tourism Authority website… as a member of that community, I’d never have believed you if you said I’d see that in my lifetime.

    They have such a long way to go, obviously, but progress is progress, and little polite prods from world leaders go a long way.
