Keir Starmer emerged from his house yesterday evening in a pre-arranged publicity event with the press. After posing for the cameras for a few seconds, Starmer is heard to ask "Have you got what you need?" before returning inside.
While Starmer was acting out his publicity stunt the Prime Minister, who perhaps loves the NHS too genuinely, too deeply and too unconditionally for the comfort of many of his party's members, joined the nation without affectation, falsehood or pretence in the weekly clap.
More lefty bashing - Rod Liddle in the Speccie
==================================
"Meanwhile, Owen Jones weighed in with his usual mixture of sanctimony and adolescent hysteria. (Someone needs to look after that boy before he implodes like a primitive nuclear fusion device, the neutrons of confected outrage piling upon one another until criticality is reached and nothing is left of Owen, just a blackened crater and some poisonous isotopes with a half life of 0.0001 nanoseconds.)"
That's all.

All he's got to do now is fall arse-over-head on Brighton Beach, call a loyal supporter a 'bigot' and eat a banana/bacon butty, and he'll complete the set!
Suit, eh?.Bad.
No tie. Good.
How are his glottal stops coming on?
Or is he going for a North of Watford Gap accent.
Who does his hair in this lockdown? Or is it a syrup, me old china.
'E shoulda got a'vice from 'is old mucker Tone. Kno wa' Ah mean.
Prick. There's a skeleton in there somewhere.
Right now Starmer is doing OK, he is not lumbered with Covid, he only has to sit and wait.
A glance at the Wiki entry for 'Douche and Turd' sums up the realpolitik. Starmer has done his sucking up, but the next few months may require a shift in allegiances.
At Conservative Home the ugly prospect of Brexit rears its head. Now I have no doubt Boris will confirm the go ahead at the end of June. He does not have much option. Therein lies Starmer's opportunity and problem.
The tricky bit will be the 'recovery' from Covid, will it be a V or a U or an L. Put yourself in the shoes of a big industrial corporate and ask 'where will I put that new operation?' or 'should I close this one and retrench over there?'. If I were heading a big Union I would be pondering hard, where are my membership dues coming from?, will my members suck up anything for a job?. If I were funding Boris I might be wondering 'where is the payback?'.
We might see an interesting play between Starmer and Boris for The Red Wall. More importantly, there will likely be a catfight between the EU components for investment and rebuilding jobs. So far Boris and mates have looked a bit slow witted and some may have doubts as to where their investment Dollar, Yen and Renminbi are going.
Starmer is a slimeball, almost literally oozing
Michael, LOL
Doonhammer, if the mediia ever turn on him there is all the CPS stuff.
jim, I hope a V but probably a U. That said US 'stock men' are making a mint
I suspect that he is trying 'to do normal politics'. Yet he cannot criticise the present Government in any serious way because that will seem to be tone deaf, so he must quibble over the details. This is not a good look.
Alongside this mincing dance (no striding into the future here) he must also, somehow, reverse the growing reputation of Labour as a Party driven by an anti-semitic and far left cadre of nutjobs. Tough job.
Some organisations need to be razed to the ground before they can be re-built (Labour, the BBC) and some need to be heavily reformed (the NHS, the Conservative Party). Sir Starmer is a creature of the Labour Party, not its saviour, so I have no sympathy.
Hypocritical lefty politician demonstrates that he's a hypocritical lefty politician. Hardly news, is it?
Meanwhile "Churchill" in No.10 is tweaking his extend-the-lockdown speech for this evening:
"We shall hide in our houses; we shall cower on the streets; we shall close our parks and our beaches; we shall queue to get in a shop; we shall change our entire way of life."
Beautiful day here in Dorset. Took my springer for a walk at Lulworth Cove early this morning where, 80 years ago, a dogfight took place between a Spitfire from 152 Squadron (RAF Warmwell) and an ME 109 - which had been thoroughly nasty to the folk of Dorchester. Many locals witnessed it, including my uncle who was 11 at the time.
Happy VE Day
Steve
Oh GROW UP
Would that Starmer had been Labour leader about 18 months ago, as opposed to the useless traitor Corbyn
I'm waiting to see how BoZo's wafflings fare against an experience crimional prosecutor
Scoring points at question time gets you nowhere remember Hague v Blair? Just imagine how Starmer, Long Bailey, Lammy would have handled this pandemic
