  1. And replaced with who?

    I’ve seen this episode a few years back and it did not end well….

  4. I think he’s doing ok, I’m not sure what people are expecting. Could it be better, maybe. Could it be worse, certainly

  5. I’m not into this at all. Labour need to get it together and deflect this kind of bullshit distraction. We had 14 years of this kind of pathetic behaviour from the shite tories. We don’t need a day more of it.

  6. Guess Sky doesn’t have enough real news to be reporting on right now so they have to make some shit up.
    I can help them. How about “The NHS could be prescribing steak and kidney pies to the entire UK population within two years, some bloke down the pub tells Sky News”.

  7. Well yeah anyone could be outdated at any time really.

    Not really a news story.

  8. He’s been an utter disappointment. Even with my tempered expections.

  9. Well that would be a fucking stupid idea.

    Labour always try and kill themselves off, its mind boggling. Although this will all be being pumped by the right wing press.

    All this media shit about rachel reeves. all it says to me is, she cares, she is actually trying. She has a near impossible task of trying to get the UK back on track after 14years of scuttling the UK by the tories.

  10. there is big money behind trying to kill the labor goverment you can sense it, which is strange because he is a centerist, but such is the control of money and power now as seen in the USA, even a centerist is not tolerated now, it has to be pure extraction from the working class, nothing less, if you think that he will be replaced by somebody left, he might but if he does the heat will be up to 11 and they will be attacked even harder until we have rightwing extremists in

  11. Replaced by Sadiq Khan to send all the Brexit crowd of idiots into a mass frenzy. 🤣

  12. Please can we just have a government that governs the country rather than playing stupid back office games? We’re in an utter mess, part of it due to successive governments playing silly games and having constant distractions rather than governing.

  13. Nope…David Miliband not ready for another 2 year yet

  14. And replaced by who?

    Complete nonsense from a couple of whingers.

  15. There are too many Labour MPs for them all to be brought inside the government jobs tent. So what do they do apart from concentrate on constituency work ? Their voters will be giving them earache about the WFA and benefits cuts as well as immigration, potholes etc.

    They try to feedback to the party powers that some things are not playing out well on the street, but seemingly get ignored. That doesnt leave them many options but to play dirty and use their numbers to change the leadership’s mind.

    I call this democratic politics in action. No leader can afford to ignore their backbenchers over the long run so they have to listen. The backbenchers equally know that sabotaging government policy creates problems down the line. All this means child benefit changes are even further away, something else they will have to explain in their constituencies.

  16. It’s like having Florentino Perez as the country’s Chairman.  

  17. To be fair we elect parties not presidents, and if the party are not convinced their elected leadership is up to scratch, they need elect another leader

  18. Starmer has been “getting ousted” every week since he got into that office. Load of shit

  19. Which mps say this and who are they bribed/bankrolled by?

  21. It’s almost like Blairism has failed and every government that’s tried to keep it going continues accelerating us into the ground.

  23. Starmer is forcing his own way.
    For good and bad.
    Personally I’m in favour of most of his policies.

    But it’s clear that alot of old guard labour don’t want change they want job security and are willing to perform political regicide to get a leader who agrees with them and not the mandate

  25. He’s a totally weak and ineffectual politician, but the problem is, he’s the best they’ve got

  29. Please not that ghoul Streeting you would speedrun the neolib transfer to the reform even quicker
