TheHeppster @theheppster.bsky.social · 17/02/2026Try critical thinking about Starmer and McSweeney’s Labour and Reform may not get elected. Oh and I wasn’t a Corbyn fan either. You lot on this thread really need to learn to listen and get out of your bubble. 200
TheHeppster @theheppster.bsky.social · 17/02/2026I’m not media or far left. I’m pro unity, anti Machiavelli. . I like some things Labour have done, others are embarrassing. Are you justifying ‘island of strangers’ and arresting retired vicars? Palentir? 100
TheHeppster @theheppster.bsky.social · 17/02/2026No. They aren’t. Stop implying you’re superior. I despise Reform. That doesn’t excuse Labour together being disgraceful and making immoral decisions. They care more about ‘right of labour’ power than preventing Reform. Labour needs unity and the right values not manipulation of power 210
TheHeppster @theheppster.bsky.social · 09/02/2026Are we agreeing that this was a mistake? Starmer’s inadequacy, preceded by McSweeney’s war against anyone not on the right, is the cause of the infighting. It’s time to get real. Starmer staying will lead to Reform, he isn’t popular and will never be so, country matters before Keir 300
TheHeppster @theheppster.bsky.social · 26/01/2026There’s been a mix of good and terrible and if you can’t see the terrible the voters certainly can. Open your eyes 100
TheHeppster @theheppster.bsky.social · 26/01/2026McSweeney and Starmer’s authoritarian behaviour has closed heathy debate, a safeguard against own goals. But then we got the own goals and we’re still getting them. I have huge respect for someone having the bravery to challenge and try and get things right. Are you one of the sycophants? 100
Reposted by TheHeppsterGuy Shrubsole @guyshrubsole.bsky.social · 25/01/2026A truly weak and stupid decision by the NEC to block Burnham from standing. The seat will now likely fall to Reform. Starmer is the least popular PM ever and him staying in post will hand the country to Farage. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...theguardian.com‘Huge mistake’: Labour in turmoil as Burnham blocked from byelection raceAllies of Greater Manchester mayor say No 10 has ‘chosen factionalism’ as decision leads to a furious backlash 137112
TheHeppster @theheppster.bsky.social · 25/01/2026I’m bored of Starmer and McSweeney and bored of Reform being ahead in the polls. Put the people before the power hungry NEC 300

TheHeppster @theheppster.bsky.social · 14/01/2025@drhelennuttall.bsky.social really enjoyed that session on the neuroscience of music tonight. Loads of questions from major to minor and whether choice is social or scientific, but great to understand more. Thank you 010
