Hypocrite Starmer condemns Diane Abbott over racism letter
He’s getting ready to give her the boot:
But he’s also showing that he is a monumental hypocrite.
Allow me to refer you, once again, to Barry Sheerman’s “silver shekels” comment:
1 August 2020 – Barry Sheerman MP tweets about "silver shekels" in reference to 2 Jewish businessmen.
He deletes the tweets and apologises.
Labour's statement: "Barry has deleted the tweets and apologised. He deeply regrets the offence caused."
That is the end of the matter. pic.twitter.com/6QOerKkC1j

This happened during Keir Starmer’s time as Labour Party leader so Sheerman remained a party member, unsuspended, with no investigation, with Starmer’s blessing.
For him to condemn another Labour Party member who hasn’t even made as serious a transgression but has still apologised in a full and frank manner is blatant – brazen – hypocrisy.
There can only be one possible reason for the difference in Starmer’s approach: that Sheerman is a right-wing member of Starmer’s crony group, while Ms Abbott is a socialist.
Starmer’s words are yet another sign to left-wing, tribal Labour supporters that the party they once thought was theirs has changed and that they should not support it under any circumstances. That would be a betrayal of their own political beliefs.

No attempt by the ‘interviewer’ to challenge Starmer’s hypocrisy on this.
As in the “Wrong Kind Of Jew” so it is for the “Wrong Kind Of Labour Member”, socialism is now being eradicated from the Labour party and Starmer will never let it return. It seems that all the right wingers are all career politicians and care little for the people on the left they say they represent. It’s absolutely disgusting how this has been allowed to happen. I’m glad I live in North Wales and hope that Welsh Labour disassociates itself with the “Starmer Party”.
