    Senior Tories have stepped up criticism of Starmer in interviews and on social media after he said in a Virgin Radio interview that he avoids working after 6pm on Fridays to spend time with his family. The Tories also came under fire from those pointing out that Starmer’s wife, Victoria, is Jewish and that the family observe traditional Shabbat dinners on Friday nights

      So what if Kier is proud of his roots.
      I’m proud of the jobs my dad did and the hours he worked to provide fir the family.
      My dad had been made redundant as the factory was closing he got a job as a postman 2 weeks before a strike was called so true to his union ethics he was on strike got 6 weeks

    Sunak had at least 3 days AWOL at the beginning of the campaign then he cut & ran from D Day commemoration. He has only canvassed in areas consider safe Tory seats and at one he loaded the audience of workers with 2 political colleagues!
    He says he wants his girls to be educated in UK if that’s the case then why did he donate £3 million to a school in California?

IT IS EASIER THAT SOMEONE ELSE MAKES THE DECISIONS FOR BRITAIN SO HE DOESNT GET THE BLAME IF THINGS GO WRONG. WHAT A DRIP!!!!
