Jesus fucking Christ.

 

Its almost like personal victories are more important than the fate of the fucking country!

Guardian run-down or 'snap verdict' of the PMQs this week. They count it as one of the most decisive wins of his. I'm not entirely sure I agree, for the reasons I gave, but it certainly wasn't anywhere close too a loss. As if anybody actually gives a fuck anymore. 

Have the Guardian ever had a "snap verdict" where Starmer didn't "win" PMQs?

 

I think support from The Guardian is pretty much a given with Starmer as leader.

I mean, I'd like to hear how - in just over 100 days - he has turned the party from Corbyn's bastion of defence into the pro-Israeli apartheid party. Oh, and why the fucking hell is Corbyn still a member of this pro-Israeli apartheid party? Surely he wouldn't be a part of a group of people that are so in favour of apartheid? 

 

I get that they're fucked off, and maybe they have a valid reason. What I know for sure is that Labour - how ever fucked up that party is right now - isn't a pro-Israeli apartheid party.

No idea, never read their snap judgements before. Probably true though. I haven't been a regular reader since they supported Nick Clegg. Even then, I'd take Nick Clegg's evil twin brother over Boris the fucking bullet dodger. 

 

That actually makes me wonder if Nick Clegg has a nice twin brother somewhere, and Nick is the evil one.

I used to usually just scroll down to the comments of articles. There was usually much better writing there. I don't have any interest in anything Toynbee, Cohen, Moore, Freedland, Kettle, etc have to say.

 

They've since stopped opening comments on most articles, presumably because a large chunk of the comments were people saying "How the fuck are you paid to write?"

Yes, they tend to over egg it sometime’s, but they’ll say when he’s been poor, which considering the opponent isn’t very often.

It would be hard not to hand him a win, even if he sat there asleep with his arms folded with everyone shouting 'wake up you silly cunt'. Johnson would still look like a bigger fucking idiot.

 

'Sir Keir Starmer once again came out on top in PMQs after shitting into his own hand and wiping it all over his chest, then tucking his cock between his legs and started clucking and doing a chicken dance up and down the isles of power'.

Withdrawal of the Whip isn't enough. Corbyn needs to be executed and then hung in a gibbet over the Thames for at least 3 years to deter others.

That's just unreasonable and out of line. 2 years is plenty enough to get the message across. To be honest, as a bleedin' heart liberal, I'd settle for 12 months and a set of commemorative plates.

Captain Kidd was there for 3 years and you don't get many UK pirates these days. Lefties are just the same, trying to steal off the hard working honest rich.

Three guesses why Scott Nelson, the man behind that account, was expelled from Labour.

One popular pro-Corbyn account, @SocialistVoice, has more than 66,000 followers on Twitter. The account holder, Scott Nelson, was expelled from Labour for a series of tweets including one that displayed an image of an Israeli flag peeling away to reveal a swastika, something for which he later apologised.

They have quite a few Corbynites talking like that now. Lots of group think going on. 

[Duff Man]

Really cool that the people who were responsible for the shoddy way antisemitism complaints were handled, are today being exonerated.

Imagine seeing the fucking state of the Tories yesterday and thinking "now is a good time to give the media bullets to fire at Labour".

 

Leadership!

"they will say when he's been poor" 

 

Will they? Any evidence of the guardian saying when Starmer has been poor?

Can you elaborate on what was bad leadership and why?
