      It's worth pointing out that Starmer won with less votes then Corbyn got in either 2017 or 2019 elections despite being smeared without evidence as an anti-semite by the corporate media and the right-wing of his own party. The only reason labour won was that the far Right and Conservatives split the vote and Labour eeked out a victory with just a little over a third of the vote. Hardly a resounding endorsement by the people of Britain. With good reason too, as Starmer is the Biden of the UK, campaign to Left the through the primaries and deliver for the donors in government.
      Starmer is going to do nothing except make sure the rich get richer and eventually they will get the far right party they deserve because neoliberalism that delivers the benefits to the very top, eventually produces fascism. Corbyn like Bernie was the UK's last chance to get off the sinking ship of neoliberalism and it's Siamese twin, colonial violence.
      The system works.

    Im amazed anyone cant see through NFs public image. Its so plain to me that his loyalty is first and foremost to himself and his own ambitions for power. Behind the mask of the straight speaking patriot lies a deeply untrustworthy and malignant character who finds it a little too easy to spout untruths and half truths to appeal to the media/voters who cant see through the act. Hes more politically astute than most of our politicians and thats what makes him dangerous, unlike the present day politicians who think we cant tell theyre lying, therefore making NFs job that much easier. We should probably judge him more around who he emulates ie. Trump, who has mastered the art of lying to the point that he has convinced 75 million Americans that he is one of them when he so obviously isnt. Cult leaders are notoriously good at this deceit and are known to be extremely dangerous to the gullible amongst us. NF has figured out the British psyche - the negative side anyway - and should be handled with kid gloves.

      The public are understandably sick and tired of being lied to. I voted REMAIN for what it's worth. We wouldn't have left the EU had we not had literally DECADES of being told "we can't do this becuase of the Europeans...." And then, when we sadly collectively took a laxative to cure the headache STILL haven't done anything about it.
      *STOP THE BOATS and control our borders!* Parliament makes the law in the UK. We always did have sovereignty. Constantly blaming someone else for their own failures caused us to exit the EU. Still the lies about multiculturalism eniching us...
      The long and short of it is that if the Labour or Tory parties _won't_ do something about this, then at long last the British public have had enough of being insulted and called extremist .... Because YOU _I glean from the way you write_ appear to have a monopoly on all things righteous! We cannot keep dumping alien cultures in the poorer places like Bradford, or parts of London, Bristol, Manchester and hope it will all sort itself out!

    Andrew Marr, stop changing your opinions like a weather-vane and within a short space of time too. Just a few months ago you were hailing Starmer as a second Attlee, praising him to the heights. And now? Only last week you were ventilating Westminster gossip with suggestions that Starmer might soon be out with the two opposing camps centred on Streeting and Rayner biding their time. I could do all this speculative chat just as well as you can. That's not what I want. I'm not expecting a master soothsayer but I do expect a degree of consistency. And swinging wildly from one view one week to another view the following week does not strike me as evidence of consistency.
