Hypocrite Starmer promises to promote local democracy – after destroying it in the Labour Party
Empty: Keir Starmer’s claims are as empty as the promises in the 10 pledges he made when he was trying to be elected Labour leader (all of which he has now broken).
This went down well, didn’t it?
After Keir Starmer claimed in a newspaper column that he would promote local democracy and empower local communities, people on the social media have been queuing up to slap him down.
The classic comment comes from a Twitter account holder who stated: “It’s laughable hypocrisy to carp on about direct democracy when your party scratched locally chosen candidates and imposes its own shortlist.”
A Skwawkbox article on the subject states:
Starmer made same promise as part of con to persuade Labour members to vote him in as leader – and has waged war on their rights to democracy and free speech ever since.

What Starmer is proposing is little more than an extention of Tory and Blair policies to “Americanise” the UK making it easier for US companies to integrate their businesses having “parallel systems”.
This means that we will suffer the stark inequalities of the US, creating a postcode lottery for healthcare and other essential services.
What he really needs to tackle is the fact that no bugger likes him !
