The Starmer achieved nothing brigade are out and about today, I make absolutely no apology for posting these again. This isn't just disrespectful to Starmer but to all the Labour MP's who made this happen in just 2 years, ignoring these achievements is a kick in the face to everyone involved.

This is a blatant threat to the RNLI, who are currently out of action in Portsmouth - ergo not saving lives, because staff are being terrorised. When will Mahmood take domestic terrorism of this nature seriously.

We are definitely in be careful what you wish for territory with Burnham. I think part of the reason Starmer was deemed to be unpopular was because he didn't shy away from unpopular decisions. He isn't a people pleaser, he knew tough choices had to be made, his politics were starting to bear fruit.

Keir Starmer took all the oxygen out of the Farage riots. They whimpered and died pretty quickly. I’m watching to see what this government does and I’m a bit underwhelmed so far.

There is no comparison between Burnham's near silence about what happened this weekend and Starmer's response to the far right. In May this year Starmer banned people he labelled far right tourists from entering the UK because they were planning to attend Tommy Ten Names march.

Morning all. The statistics re the fewer numbers of small boats crossing, deportations & arrests of smuggling gangs are all over social media. Perhaps communication wasn't the problem under Starmer, just prejudiced minds who refuse to accept this. With those leaks from the PLP itself of course 🤷

The UK economy grew 0.4% in the Q2 (Apr-Jun) 2026. On top of the 0.6% growth in Q1, it means the economy has grown by more than 1% already this year. Since Labour came to power in July 2026 it means Starmer & Reeves oversaw 8 consequtive quarters of growth, with the cumulative growth being 2.63%.

I recall how Starmer was lauded for his reaction to the Farage riots back when he first became PM. Then the critics moved in. This is the sweet bit, the shit comes next for Burnham. Always knew Farage peaked too soon & would never win a GE. Hope Burnham has skin as thick as Starmer.

It doesn't, I don't understand why a Labour PM, barely in the job doesn't have the grace and simple good manners to acknowledge the man who led the party to the GE win barely 2 years ago. Why is he not making it 100% clear these policies were already happening under Starmer.
