Starmer owes his heckler a public apology
Evidence suggests that Starmer owes his heckler a public apology after a response to him that was entirely inappropriate.
We should be grateful to Skwawkbox for the following:
A protester in the conference hall shouted to ask ‘What about the children of Gaza?’ who are being murdered in tens of thousands by Israel, with many more maimed and a million facing starvation along with their family if they’re lucky enough to have survived the slaughter so far.
And Starmer’s response – which he and his acolytes seemed to consider amusing?
“I think this guy got his pass for the 2019 conference.”
Yes. In the diseased minds and rotten souls of Starmer and his factional allies, not murdering children is so 2019 – especially if they’re Palestinians.
Perhaps the mass media representatives covering the conference couldn’t hear what the heckler said. But if Steve Walker, over on a fellow political commentary site could manage to work it out, one has to question whether they simply chose not to check.
And let’s also be grateful to Skwawkbox for this:
The young conference delegate thrown out by heavies and held by police after asking Keir Starmer, during the ‘human rights lawyer’s conference speech, ‘What about the children of Gaza?’… told his interviewer that he had in fact joined in 2022 to support Keir Starmer and hadn’t planned to say anything at all during the speech – but was so disgusted by what he heard and the lack of genuine intent to act on the part of the children being blown apart by bombs dropped by fighter jets running on British-supplied parts that he simply had to speak out.
He was absolutely clear that nothing short of a full arms embargo imposed on the genocidal settler-colonial state is enough – and said that he expects voicing such (clearly sane) views would get him thrown out of the party by Starmer’s cowardly and authoritarian regime.

Owen Jones says that one of the people who dealt with one of the protestors, not necessarily this one, is a Labour councillor.
Okay, so he needs to be targeted for defeat.
