Isn’t that rather the job of an effective opposition government? If the party can’t be effective in opposition why would anyone think they’d be effective in government?
He’s an absolute moron, how’s he in charge of labour? Looks like he should be on the sex offenders register.
So he’s saying Labour should be a party of action rather than just protest. I kind of agree, nobody likes those who just sit on the sidelines and snipe.
But I’m sure sure there will be people here calling for his head and a return to the party of protest and no government…
How about becoming the party of the Centre and Left again? Then we can all stop protesting your leadership.
Fair enough, but we need to start seeing the policy platform. It’s alright being tactical, but it’s time to start setting out a positive vision people can get excited about.
Starmer – “says something obvious that no-one who achieved B or above n GCSE Maths and English would question”
Socialists, Corbyn cultists and other people who have no grasp of politics – “REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE”
Kier Starmer, tory in disguise!
It’s true. There seems to be a large portion of the left that have built their entire worldview of being in perpetual opposition to things and protesting, but never actually leading. They’re like that guy you know at work that’s constantly shit talking the managers and saying how things should be done, but when given the opportunity to actually lead or take charge, they collapse in on themselves.
Alright. Guess I should just lie down and take my bills up the arse whilst labour fail to get elected once again.
Okay but it’s 12 years of Tory government and there is a lot to protest about and we still have two years left. Actually getting off the fence and understanding why people are protesting and striking would probably go a long way to making Labour more electable.
Take the protest votes and work on better policies for the election after.
Given what is going on with strikes at the moment, this seems to be starmer reiterating they are against strikes. Great position for the actual labour party /s
Why would a globalist say that ffs
This is what Blair was good at. Better to get some of your things done than nothing.
He is spot on. It will probably be disagreed with here to oblivion but protesting rarely achieves anything anymore and a slice of the electorate cannot stand it. Look how many protested the Iraq war for example. All a political party protesting achieves is to make them look childish, far better to oppose them in Parliament and look at least remotely professional.
If its not for that, WTF is it for?
Where I am at present, we have a LibDem MP. Not in anyone’s pocket and not mentioned by the Tabloids!

The UK has two main political parties :
C – represents the Countryside Millionaires
L – represents the London Millionaires
