Politics, Spurs & history articles. Pro-Corbyn. Love living in London. Late dad Robert did animation for Richard Williams, Pink Floyd & Paul McCartney.
Keir Starmer is getting an £8,750 a game box to Arsenal's stadium as a freebie.
While telling pensioners on £11,500 a year that they need to sacrifice more for the country.
Sick.
@UKLabour
The sad thing is, when Keir Starmer fails, people are going to claim it was left wing politics failing.
When it's just right wing politics failing again.
Keir Starmer just straight up refused to punish his landlord MP.
But Zarah Sultana is still without the Labour whip for voting to reduce child poverty.
Keir Starmer sending out
@UKLabour
MPs to argue that £11,500 is a lot of money to live on a year.
While arguing that multi-millionaires can't spare a single extra penny in tax.
If you earned £20,000 a year, Corbyn would have increased your tax by £0.
£80,000 - still £0
£100,000 - £1,000
£1,000,000 - £46,000
£10,000,000 - £496,000
Guess why all the celebs, MPs, billionaire newspaper owners and journalists hated him.
@UKLabour
@Keir_Starmer
Centrists when Jeremy Corbyn was unpopular: "it's all his fault".
Centrists when Keir Starmer is unpopular: "it's a concerted effort by the press to turn people against him; it's so unfair".
@UKLabour
Labour vote share in Rochdale.
49.4% - Tony Blair 1997
49.2% - Tony Blair 2001
40.0% - Tony Blair 2005
36.4% - Gordon Brown 2010
46.1% - Ed Miliband 2015
58.0% - Jeremy Corbyn 2017
51.6% - Jeremy Corbyn 2019
7.7% - Keir Starmer 2024
One of these is not like the others.
Jeremy Corbyn wanted to raise tax by 5% on earnings over £80,000 a year.
Keir Starmer wants to take £300 off all pensioners getting over £12,000 a year.
Are you seeing the difference between a Labour party that targets the rich and one that targets the poor.
@UKLabour
It's quite extraordinary. Jeremy Corbyn, a 71 year old man and leader of the Labour party for half a decade, is the only MP in the whole of Britain to have been assaulted twice in the last 5 years and neither time the British press highlighted it.
That tells you everything.
James O'Brien knew exactly what the Tories would do if Jeremy Corbyn was not elected Prime Minister.
And still did everything he could to prevent Jeremy Corbyn becoming Prime Minister.
The fact that Jeremy Corbyn is right on almost every issue.
And yet deemed completely unelectable.
Is what's wrong with British politics.
@UKLabour
@Keir_Starmer
Reminder, Nadia Whittome is 24 years old, the young MP in the country, took a wage reduction and worked in a care home during the pandemic as people clapped for carers.
This is about as nasty a thing as you can do to an excellent young MP.
Centrists: "People who hate Keir Starmer might give the Tories 5 more years".
Narrator: "People who hate Jeremy Corbyn did give the Tories 5 more years".
@UKLabour
Just so we're clear, Jeremy Corbyn's 40% in the 2017 general election is unelectable.
But Keir Starmer's 36% today against a collapsing Tory vote is amazing?
@UKLabour
Why did the entire British press promote Jeremy Corbyn as having worse character than Boris Johnson?
When every single one of them knew it wasn't true.
@UKLabour
They hate Mick Lynch for the same reason they hate Jeremy Corbyn.
He's trying to give poorer people a fair chance at life and he won't stop just to make his own life easier.
@UKLabour
@Keir_Starmer
Why was Keir Starmer quicker to call for Nicola Sturgeon's dismissal for not breaking parliamentary rules, than he is for Michael Gove's for literally breaking the law?
Jeremy Corbyn told you your problems were caused by the rich.
Keir Starmer tells you your problems are caused by the poor.
One's right, the other's right wing.
@UKLabour
Centrists: "why is Keir Starmer being held to higher standards than the Tories".
Me: "why is Keir Starmer being held to lower standards than Jeremy Corbyn".
@UKLabour
Why is Keir Starmer's new aide demanding to know Jeremy Corbyn's medical records, rather than demanding to know Rishi Sunak's tax records?
I thought the goal was to win a general election?
All the people who thought Keir Starmer was much better at handling the press than Jeremy Corbyn.
He wasn't was he.
The media were just on his side because he was turning Labour right wing.
Remember every time Keir Starmer said there was no money to help anyone.
Somehow he finds over £20 billion to help the industry that lobbied him.
Never accept "there is no money to help anyone" again.
Reminder than Andrew Neil called Carole Cadwalladr a "crazy cat lady" and the BBC didn't do a thing, every time they bang on about this Corbyn non-story.
The reason the economy is so bad; austerity.
Keir Starmer's solution; austerity.
The reason the NHS wastes money; privatisation.
Keir Starmer's solution; privatisation.
@UKLabour
How long until Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves claim only the poorest should get free healthcare too.
This the test case to see if you'd accept the NHS privatisation argument.
Number of Guardian articles about a Jeremy Corbyn purge that never happened or was ever going to happen - 500
Number of Guardian articles about an 18 month ongoing Keir Starmer purge that very much is happening - 0
Don't you just love a free and fair press.
@UKLabour
Watching the Last Leg, you'd never realise that Jeremy Corbyn offered more hope to people with disabilities than any other political leader in decades.
@UKLabour
It's quite extraordinary how far to left of Keir Starmer, the leaders of the SNP, Plaid Cymru and the Greens are.
They actually act like Labour are supposed to.
The guy who said he was leaving Britain to avoid Jeremy Corbyn raising taxes on billionaires.
Is now voting for Keir Starmer.
If ever you wanted evidence that Labour are now the Tories.
Keir Starmer has to either remove the whip from Margaret Hodge, or give it back to Jeremy Corbyn.
They've both done the exact same thing.
They need to be treated the same.
@UKLabour
Remember when Jeremy Corbyn was called unpatriotic for helping out at homeless shelters on Christmas Day, rather than watching the Queen's speech.
Caring counts. Patriotism doesn't.
@UKLabour
@trussliz
@Keir_Starmer
By claiming Emma Watson, Desmond Tutu and Jeremy Corbyn are all racists.
Aren't you only making it more obvious Jeremy Corbyn isn't.
@Keir_Starmer
@UKLabour
Does it not make you angry that Keir Starmer, Rachel Reeves, Wes Streeting and Peter Mandelson have all publicly made clear they wanted the Tories to beat Jeremy Corbyn in 2019.
It really should.
@UKLabour
Gentle reminder that Justin Welby
- is a member of the House of Lords
- went to Eton
- is the highest ranking non-Royal in the country
- went out of his way to help Boris Johnson's Tories beat Jeremy Corbyn in 2019.
He is the very definition of clinging to power and privilege.
Keir Starmer is openly saying that a vote for him is a vote against Jeremy Corbyn.
So why would someone who likes Jeremy Corbyn's politics vote for Keir Starmer?
@UKLabour
Remember when people used to think Jeremy Corbyn was awful just because JK Rowling said he was.
When he just wanted to raise tax 5% on people earning over £80,000 a year, so people earning less than 80k had a better chance of a half decent life.
@UKLabour
Remember when Jeremy Corbyn was actually assaulted, twice, and the press and fellow MPs cared less about it than what just happened to Keir Starmer and David Lammy.
@UKLabour
Why was somebody as rich as Lord Alli so desperate for Labour not to be elected when Jeremy Corbyn was leader.
And yet so confident that Keir Starmer will do nothing to tax rich people.
Why did the EHRC launch an investigation into Jeremy Corbyn?
But has never in it's entire history launched an investigation into the Tories, UKIP or Brexit Party?
@UKLabour
Can the Chief Rabbi write a Times front page on the danger a Tory party who've had 5 candidates pulled up for antisemitism and are working with Victor Orban, Steve Bannon and just about every far right racist party in Europe, pose Jewish people.
@jeremycorbyn
@BorisJohnson
Keir Starmer will work with Le Pen and Trump, because he doesn't see them as extremists.
He sees people like Corbyn as extremists, because they aren't driven by money, ego or bigotry.
@UKLabour
Why didn't Martin Lewis speak up for Jeremy Corbyn when he knew his economic policies were miles better for 99% of the country than Boris Johnson's?
@UKLabour
Why were Labour's front bench only interested when Nusrat Ghani spoke out about Islamophobia, not Zarah Sultana and Apsana Begum?
@UKLabour
@Keir_Starmer
Just so we're clear, Keir Starmer can spend time partying with the guy who owns Fox News.
But Labour members can't spend time talking with the guy who made I, Daniel Blake.
Got it.
Dan Wootton, Jeremy Clarkson and Piers Morgan are just gutted that after a life-time of self-promotion.
Harry and Meghan can still sell a book 20 times quicker than any of them without even having to lie or target it towards bigots.
