Gotta be. Surely. I should start a poll - what time is he going to announce that he’s throwing in the towel. Another Labour record in the making - shortest lasting labour leader?
Starmer. Today’s the day.

I say just after his breakfast when he has his avocado on toast. Sliced, not smashed as he’s been unable to smash anything….

What does that indicate when compared to 5 Tory leaders in the same length of time?
That labour are just as fùcking useless as the Tories ended up being and that Starmer is not the knight in shining armour that all the Labour luvvies thought he would be.What does that indicate when compared to 5 Tory leaders in the same length of time?
What do you think it indicates - competence?

You have a poor recollection of history.
Starmer followed Corbyn, but he was only elected by just over 50% of the vote.
So your recollection is evidently erroneous, or intentionally badly presented, and you wouldn't do that, would you.
Relatively, more competent than the previous four Prime Ministers, who were Tory leftover hangers-on after Boris sacked the decent ones.What do you think it indicates - competence?
Even if Starmer goes, I don’t think much will change as they are really a rabble of egos not willing to work in unison for the UK - and the next leader will be powerless

Burnham has a proven track record of bringing together a multi-disciplined team with varying objectives.
The same was said about Boris and we all know what the result was.

Boris was morally corrupt, and it showed before his premiership as well as during.
His supporters ignored the warning signs.

I'm in two minds. It would be good to see Starmer's smug arrogance evaporating, but Burnham will destroy the country. Nothing to celebrate.

When SKS replaced Corbyn I was quite pleased as I thought he was an enabling opposition leader. That thought persisted until lockdown when he started whittling about how to get out of Lockdown 3 weeks after it was imposed.
Today I'm still not impressed. The Labour government under his leadership has to one of the worst; not helped with the Union push for their members to be in power.
Will his replacement (Burnham?) be any better - I very much doubt it, in fact in my present circumstances I'm very concerned for my (financial) future. (we want to move to a place were we aren't so reliant on private transport.)
I can see taxes increasing again, selected benefits increasing, other benefits (state pension probably becoming means tested) decreasing.

Why do some people insist on misrepresenting history?
Are they not aware that the truth is available to not only refute their claims, but also to illustrate how corrupt are their memories.
Here you go again
Let’s see who takes over and see how they get on first.
After all it’s a mess of labours making that they need to sort out first
