Labour party and stepping on their own dicks, name a more iconic duo.
Starmer is such a pillock. The Conservatives are in a self-inflicted awkward position and he could easily waltz into government, but he seems to take every opportunity to be dislikeable or cause unnecessary controversy. He refuses to back a widely accepted and wanted ceasefire to appease… who, exactly?
Asking for peace and a cease-fire is the easiest, most neutral position to take. What he’s doing may as well be handing the Conservatives some votes because he’s virtually no different other than wearing a red ribbon instead of blue in situations like this.
Classic labour, infighting about something that doesn’t affect the UK and damaging the best lead in the polls they’ve had for years. The tories must be pissing themselves with laughter this evening.
I still don’t understand why he didn’t call for a freevote. Now he looks sooo bad with 50+ MPs voting against a triple whip vote.
What we have here is a man whos afraid that if he does anything but lick Israels arse that he will be beaten around the head with the ghost of Corbyn and his inability to call out anti-semitism
The next election was essentially handed to labour on a plate and now Starmer has fucked it, going against what the majority of the population want? It’s absolutely heartbreaking that they’re refusing to vote for a ceasefire.
It’s is not antisemitic to want a ceasefire either, it’s not about religion or race it’s basic humanitarianism.
56 MPs isn’t as many as I’d like but it’s a good start and a decent showing – Starmer absolutely cannot deselect that many MPs at once.
Amazing how virtue signalling on international affairs (ammendment wasn’t going through whatever Labour did) is more important than reversing a decade of domestic decline.
Whatever the question is, this mealy-mouthed twat Starmer will never be the answer.
Quick, call in Tony. He can fill in for Jess. If it’s good enough for the Tory’s.
Good riddance to these idiots who prefer to be in a protest movement instead of a post of government. Healy’s words from 1959 are still relevant today
“Hugh Gaitskell was absolutely right when he said yesterday that what gets cheers at this conference does not necessarily get votes at elections. If it did we would have won Devonport. There are far too many people who… want to luxuriate complacently in moral righteousness in Opposition. But who is going to pay the price for their complacency?
You can take the view that it it better to give up half a loaf if you cannot get the whole loaf, but the point is that it is not we who are giving up the half loaf. In Britain it is the unemployed and old aged pensioners, and outside Britain there are millions of people in Asia and Africa who desperately need a Labour Government in this country to help them. If you take the view that it is all right to stay in Opposition so long as your Socialist heart is pure, you will be ‘all right, Jack’. You will have your TV set, your motor car and your summer holidays on the Continent and still keep your Socialist soul intact. The people who pay the price for your sense of moral satisfaction are the Africans, millions of them, being slowly forced into racial slavery; the Indians and the Indonesians dying of starvation.
We are not just a debating society. We are not just a Socialist Sunday School. We are a great movement that wants to help real people living on this earth at the present time. We shall never be able to help them unless we get power. We shall never get their power unless we close the gap between our active workers and the average voter in the country.”
Just when they have an unsaleable lead in the polls, and the Conservatives virtually destroying themselves from the inside, classic Labour strike back with an own goal.
Useful idiots throwing a tantrum over an empty gesture.
Any country in the world demanding a ceasefire in a fucked up place like the middle east is like fucking for virginity.
Only Labour could have such a massive lead in the polls, and then miss this up so badly.
The spineless Keith has power handed to Labour on a platter but decided to back Israel, bully his party, expels members, alienate the electorate. What an establishment Shill !
Just telling people to stop shooting over people shouldn’t be this politicised but if he did you just know the media is waiting with baited breath to run a dozen anti semitism articles again.
Labour is shitting itself at the thought of ending up in charge🤣
The fact people don’t see this for what it is as an SNP trap is maddening. Starmer was in a crap position though. Years will be spent in this geopolitical cesspit imo. And we could see Galloway style parties emerge from a few labour safe seats as a result.
Congratulations on saving the Tories from themselves, you numpties.
I actually support Starmer here.
This a very sensitive and complex issue.
Those Labour front benches are dumb. Still support Tories but got to give credit.
Either ppl are deliberately obtuse or purposely ignoring things! Oh it doesn’t even effect UK?! Like really?? We are an international power with a veto in UNSC not an isolationist nation like Papua New Guinea or some other minor country. We have significant interests in the ME! If UK is so detached to the conflict, why did the PM visit Israel within days of the conflict? Why was Statmer asked the question? He could have just said it doesn’t effect us and moved on, except he didn’t!
The optics of mass resignations to support an international affair that has no impact on the UK whatsoever and the UK has literally no leverage in impacting anyway is tragic.
Let’s be honest, today’s vote in parliament will have absolutely no impact on the election.
If these clowns fuck up another general election somehow you can say goodbye to the union I can tell you that.
Kid Starver would rather see children be bombed to death, rather than calling a ceasefire? Colour me surprised.
This issue is one of the reasons PR won’t happen anytime soon in this country. One of the reasons it wouldn’t be the political panacea people fantasise it would be actually.
Decades of anti semitism accusations that have been worse since jezza has been about and old Keir has tried to dampen it all down and they go and do something like this, over a vote that is going to have absolutely no bearing on anything and even if it did, Israel would just turn around and say *thanks, noted* and carry on
Truly bizarre
Which is completely pointless as Labour currently has no influence on the situation whatsoever.
Starmer is following the directions of the cabal who put him where he is. He is a creature of the BritIntel milieu, all the political observers and journos in Northern Ireland know it.
All I can say is Huzzah for the resignation of Jess Phillips. She always left me with the bitter taste of her being a misandrist.
When’s the next time Starmer will shoot the Labour party in the foot?
Oh for Christ sake,can’t they just get done with killing each other already? Anyone with half a brain could see that a ceasefire is about as likely as cheese on the moon
This is what happens when someone’s only leader by lying to the party members and getting vast amounts of corporate donations.
