Not for the young: flag-shagging Keir Starmer has turned young voters away from the Labour Party.

How tragically revealing.

Admittedly this has to come with the caveat that the pollster is the Tory-run organisation YouGov.

However, the size of the numbers suggests there’s something in this.

They show that Labour’s share of the 18-24-year-old vote has plummetted by 21 points (from 56 per cent to 35 per cent). It seems all those voters have gone to the Green Party.

There’s a good reason for that…

Labour has spent the last year calling their voters racist, idiots and losers.

This is a glimpse of the future for what now looks like a permanently dysfunctional party. https://t.co/O9qF7S7aIe

Turns out, if you suspend Jeremy Corbyn from the Labour Party, abandon all his policies, throw Palestinians under the bus, and pander to flag-shaggers, you lose the youth vote.

I’ve often thought about how the way the Labour right talk about ‘the voters’ is extremely weird.

They’ll often castigate young people online with ‘that’ll go down well with the voters’, as though they aren’t currently addressing a voter.

I suppose this is the end result. https://t.co/uCU9g9KUYh

Let’s be honest. We can name the reason in two words:

Keir Starmer.

Keir Starmer: if you insist on copying Tory tactics you will get ridicule

Keir Starmer: shamed again.

This is poetic justice.

After his woeful performance on Piers Morgan’s Life Stories, fans of Keir Starmer tried to bolster his dwindling support by tweeting messages in his favour.

Unfortunately (for them), they all seem to have simply copied the same message (from Labour HQ?) and tweeted it.

It copies the classic “Tory bot campaign” tactic of trying to seem authentic by including spelling and grammar mistakes – but nobody was taken in.

Here’s the original (in two versions so you can see that they’re identical):

Will Labour celebrate as more reliable Survation poll puts party only 11 POINTS behind Tories?

Uninspired: Keir Starmer searches for something else to blame, having realised that saying Labour’s problems are all due to Jeremy Corbyn won’t work any more.

This Site suggested, back when YouGov put Labour 18 points behind the Tories, that the figure might not be entirely accurate.

YouGov is a Tory-run polling organisation, remember. It shows, doesn’t it?

Now we have figures from Survation – the pollster whose figures have most accurately described voting intentions for the last few years – and they’re not much better!

Westminster voting intention:

CON: 44% (+6)
LAB: 33% (-5)
LDEM: 8% (-)
GRN: 6% (+1)

via @Survation, 25-26 May
Chgs. w/ 29 Apr

https://t.co/XlG6u4fhtT

— Britain Elects (@BritainElects) May 27, 2021

Survation puts Labour a colossal 11 points behind the Tories. The Conservatives are up six points to 44 per cent, while Labour has plummetted five points to 33 per cent. That means they were level-pegging in the company’s previous survey.

But wait – there’s worse.

Boris Johnson’s approval rating has shot up to four per cent, while Keir Starmer is now languishing at -11 per cent. It’s a rise of 11 points for Johnson, while Starmer’s ratings have been falling steadily since May last year. He started with 17 per cent in May last year and has lost 27 points over the 12 months since.

On the question of who would make the best prime minister, Starmer hasn’t been a contender since September last year. Boris Johnson leads by 17 points, with support from 45 per cent of voters, while only 28 per cent thought Starmer would do a better job.

And people are under no illusions about the cause of the party’s collapse:

Labour are hoping to win by not being as bad as the Tories or as socialist as Jeremy Corbyn.

But they need to win voters over by actually BEING something.

Atm voters might as well go and vote for an old sink dumped on a skip.

— Chelley Ryan #BerniesMittens (@chelleryn99) May 27, 2021

The next few years go like this:

Johnson (128,000 dead) 'did his best'.
Corbyn (free prescriptions) 'is Satan'.
Starmer (100% teak) 'needs more time to unify the party'.

— simon maginn (@simonmaginn) May 27, 2021

The question now is how much longer Starmer can hang on before he realises that nobody believes him any more when he blames Jeremy Corbyn.

Motormouth Nandy shouldn’t be a Labour MP. She accuses Corbyn, but SHE is the genuine anti-Semite

Open mouth, insert feet: it seems Lisa Nandy can’t open her mouth without saying something stupid – and she spends a lot of time with her mouth open, looking stupid.

What an ignorant thing for a Labour front-bencher to say.

Shadow Foreign Secretary Lisa Nandy has told right-wing talk radio station LBC that Jeremy Corbyn should not be re-admitted to the Parliamentary Labour Party until he apologises for hurt he has caused to the Jewish community.

He already has:

Like he did here @lisanandy?
smdh https://t.co/DoMBMrylkA pic.twitter.com/IFOwxU2VYH

— Babble (@Babble____) May 24, 2021

But he shouldn’t have done it then and he has no need to do it now.

Nandy, on the other hand, has no reason to be anywhere near the Labour Party; she disgraces it by her presence.

Remember when she described anti-Semitism as “a particular kind of racism, that punches up instead of punching down”?

Labour recorded multiple complaints against Nandy for that howler – not only from Jews who rightly regarded it as anti-Semitic (separating Jews from everybody else), but also from BAME communities who rightly regarded her as putting them beneath the rest of us.

StarmerLabour quietly swept these complaints under the carpet and let racist anti-Semite Nandy stay in her frontbench position. How hypocritical.

Remember when she supported a plan for a new system to investigate anti-Semitism allegations against Labour members, that was actually illegal?

She wanted to share information on disciplinary cases with other organisations – including the media – but as a data controller, Labour is under an obligation to keep data on its members confidential.

Remember when she advocated the use of force to prevent Scotland from gaining independence from the Union?

She infamously said that the UK should “look to Catalonia” for lessons on how to defeat Scottish nationalism.

She was referring to the Spanish government’s use of force to try to stop a disputed independence referendum in Catalonia, in 2017.

She has no moral authority to pronounce any kind of judgement on Jeremy Corbyn.

He is a far better Labour MP than she will ever be – even when she sits on the Labour benches and he has been banished from them.

Keir ‘More Tory Than Tories’ Starmer wants barriers to remove the hoi-polloi from Primrose Hill park

Fake Labour: Keir Starmer is more interested in flags, suits, haircuts and privilege than in representing the ordinary people of the UK.

When a Labour leader is more interested in blocking ordinary people out of a Royal park so rich residents aren’t disturbed by the hoi-polloi, you know he has to go.

Keir Starmer has supported calls for a 9ft high barrier to be put across entrances to Primrose Hill in North London, after receiving complaints that lockdown restrictions had resulted in a rowdy, violent, drug-taking and drug-dealing crowd coming to the park.

There is no evidence to suggest that he has researched the situation himself; he has simply followed right-wing Labour policy of believing that any complaint about anything at all must be true and that the alleged wrongdoers are guilty and no proof is needed.

What a strange attitude for a former Director of Public Prosecutions!

In fact, any implied wrong-doing at the park could be halted with effective policing. The Tory government says it is bringing in thousands of new police officers, so there’s no reason not to send some of them here.

Far worse than any alleged wrong-doing in the park – for Starmer – is the fact that, yet again, he has sided with Conservatives for no reason at all; local Tories have been leafleting the area to campaign for gates.

It means the Labour leader is actively campaigning to end the right of ordinary people to enjoy London’s only remaining permanently-open Royal park, and to restrict it to people who are rich and privileged.

The response on the social media is well worth examining. Consider this:

'For the few not the many'

Keir Starmer personally pushes for 9 foot barrier across Primrose Hill in north London locking off London’s only permanently open royal park from the public on weekend evenings & maintaining exclusivity for wealthy residents. https://t.co/4caHXsuzxg

— aidan jp (@aidanpettitt) May 23, 2021

If you look at the responses from those who support gating, you’ll see that most of them have very few followers and aren’t following many people either, that their profile pictures are not of themselves, and that they have numbers at the end of their Twitter handles; in short, that they are trollbots that have been set to ensure that idle readers think there’s more support for gating than just a few self-entitled toffs and their Labour Party cuckoo.

These comments ring truer:

Absolutely spot on. Starmer is an authoritarian, do as I say dictator. Democracy (or what is left of it in the UK) would not be safe in his hands. His actions are straight from the Trilateral Commission handbook. #StarmerOut

— Jeanette Fletcher #StarmerOut #Beckett4Unite (@LillMagill) May 23, 2021

Backing Tory councillors to restrict public entry to a park to benefit wealthy residents has got to be the most Starmer thing ever.

Labour has hit a new low in the polls and Keir Starmer can’t blame anybody but himself

Keir Starmer: both the cause and the symptom of Labour’s electoral problems.

More than a year after Jeremy Corbyn handed over the Labour leadership to Keir Starmer, the party has fallen to a new low in the opinion polls, 18 points behind the Conservatives.

The situation is almost the exact opposite of what so-called ‘centrists’ said would happen with “Anybody But Corbyn” as leader; they promised a 20-point lead.

So, what went wrong?

The new poll, conducted by YouGov and released on Saturday, had Labour on just 28 per cent – down four points on Jeremy Corbyn’s disastrous 2019 general election result, and down 12 points on his 2017 result.

The opposition leader was publicly accused by one of his MPs [Ian Lavery] of lacking substance and being “invisible” as Labour continued to reel from a series of disappointing elections.

The new front bench team has so far failed to break the narrative that the party does not have distinctive policies or have fixed principles.

If this is the start of a leadership bid by Lavery, This Writer reckons it will be welcomed by the party membership and by voters.

Of course, the poll is be Tory-run YouGov and is therefore suspect. We’ll have to see what Survation has to say before we can be sure.

As far as comments are concerned, strangely I can’t find it at the moment but someone put a satirical remark on Twitter to the effect that, if leftists had only refrained from calling him “Keith”, Labour might be only 16 points behind.

… oh, and among working class voters, that’s a whopping thirty-six points behind:

Starmer THIRTY-SIX points behind Tories among working-class voters – and FIFTY-THREE among working-class leavers https://t.co/s7Teg44u3B

— The SKWAWKBOX (@skwawkbox) May 22, 2021

It doesn’t matter whether we call him Keir or Keith; his name is Mud.

Get rid of him, Labour. We all deserve better. And it won’t come from the centre or the right.

Starmer aide who tried to shame Corbyn over Covid jab is shamed instead

Laughter is the best response: Jeremy Corbyn’s supporters have ridiculed latest – Labour – attempt to shame him.

The stupidity of StarmerLabour is overtaking that of the Tories, it seems.

In the latest bid to undermine former – and still much more popular – Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, an aide of Keir Starmer named Sharon Hodgson has demanded that he reveal whether he has had a Covid-19 vaccination injection yet.

She said it is not a private matter. Strong words from a party whose leaders can’t tell us what their policies are because they are “confidential”!

Corbyn is 71 years old, so has been eligible for a vaccine since January.

But his office has failed to respond to requests from HuffPost UK asking if he had had the vaccine, although his parliamentary office told the Guido Fawkes website this week that Corbyn “doesn’t normally comment on personal health matters”.

Are we making it mandatory, now, for everybody to announce whether they’ve had the jab or not?

Won’t this provoke more division, with those who have refused it suffering prejudice from those who disagree with their views? Or, indeed, with anti-vaxxers attacking those who’ve had it?

Why would StarmerLabour want to use the vaccine to cause dissent?

Fortunately this attack on Starmer’s forerunner seems doomed to die in mockery and ridicule.

See – and enjoy it – for yourself:

‘It’s confidential’: Ashworth’s failure to say what Labour stands for means we only know what it doesn’t

“It’s confidential,” said Ashworth. If he can’t tell us what Labour stands for, then we can’t vote for him, his leader Keir Starmer or any of their cronies. Fair enough?

What a farce the Labour Party has become under Keir Starmer’s leadership!

Shadow Health Secretary Jonathan Ashworth appeared on ITV’s Good Morning Britain – only to be embarrassed when he could not tell the presenters any of Labour’s current political policies:

The clip again, GMB deleted the original clip but then reposted it.pic.twitter.com/NMhSxLzSjj

— Devutopia (@D_Raval) May 19, 2021

So it seems that while we don’t know what StarmerLabour stands for, we do know what it doesn’t – because we know what he has ditched.

He has ditched all 10 of the pledges that got him elected Labour leader. This means that he was elected under false pretences and should stand for re-election but just you see if he does!

So Starmer Labour doesn’t stand for economic justice, meaning it won’t increase income tax for the top five per cent of earners, reverse the Tories’ cuts in corporation tax and clamp down on tax avoidance, particularly of large corporations.

It doesn’t stand for social justice, meaning it won’t abolish Universal Credit and end the Tories’ cruel sanctions regime; set a national goal for wellbeing to make health as important as GDP; invest in services that help shift to a preventative approach; stand up for universal services and defend our NHS. Nor will it support the abolition of tuition fees and invest in lifelong learning.

It doesn’t stand for climate justice, meaning it won’t put the Green New Deal at the heart of everything it does. It will not bring in a Clean Air Act to tackle pollution locally or demand international action on climate rights.

It won’t promote peace and human rights, meaning it won’t oppose illegal wars. Nor will it introduce a Prevention of Military Intervention Act and put human rights at the heart of foreign policy, review all UK arms sales or make the UK a force for international peace and justice.

It doesn’t stand for common ownership, meaning it won’t put public services back in public hands instead of making profits for shareholders. It won’t support common ownership of rail, mail, energy and water and it won’t end outsourcing in our NHS, local government and justice system.

It won’t support migrants’ rights, meaning it won’t give full voting rights to EU nationals, defend free movement with the EU, offer an immigration system based on compassion and dignity, end indefinite detention and call for the closure of centres such as Yarl’s Wood.

It doesn’t stand for workers’ rights and trade unions, meaning it won’t work shoulder to shoulder with trade unions to stand up for working people, tackle insecure work and low pay. It won’t repeal the Trade Union Act. It won’t oppose Tory attacks on the right to take industrial action and the weakening of workplace rights.

It doesn’t stand for a radical devolution of power, wealth, rights and opportunity, meaning it won’t push power, wealth and opportunity away from Whitehall. It won’t create a federal system to devolve powers – including through regional investment banks and control over regional industrial strategy. It won’t abolish the House of Lords and replace it with an elected chamber of regions and nations.

StarmerLabour doesn’t stand for equality, meaning it won’t pull down obstacles that limit opportunities and talent. It is no longer the party of the Equal Pay Act, Sure Start, BAME representation and the abolition of Section 28.

And StarmerLabour absolutely does not stand for effective opposition to the Tories. It won’t offer forensic, effective opposition to the Tories in Parliament, linked up to its mass membership and it will not run a professional election operation. It will further split the party, suppress pluralism and diminish our culture. It won’t eradicate the scourge of antisemitism. And it will erode collective links with the unions.

So, knowing this, here’s my question:

Starmer has betrayed everything Labour used to stand for. Why should we care what he’s offering instead?
