Starmer has put himself with Farage in a very similar position on Venezuela.
The only difference being - gobsmackingly - that Nigel Farage at least acknowledges it's contrary to international law!

I think it is as absurd that Polanski is lumping Starmer together with Farage as it is that Starmer is lumping Polanski together with Farage. I also think it is probably doing neither of them any good.
"The only flags Farage and Starmer have been waving this weekend are white."

The last time McSweeney convinced Starmer to make a speech with emotion it resulted in the neo-Rivers of Blood "nation of strangers" speech.
At political cabinet today, Morgan McSweeney gave a presentation on “three Es” on how the government can connect with voters - emotion, empathy and evidence.
Am told he said the government currently has a “deficit in emotion”

He’s wrong, governments do lose because polls go down. But it’s also just bland, beige word soup that only someone of incredibly small imagination and talent could write and believe in.

More from Starmer’s political cabinet today, where he told ministers to ignore Labour’s dire poll ratings
“I do not underestimate the scale of the task. But I have no doubt about this team. Governments do not lose because polls go down. They lose when they lose belief or nerve. We will do neither.”

That’s thousands of ordinary women and girls being exploited online via non-consensual deepfakes.
Labour is tackling the issue at the source – making it illegal to supply the tools for creating explicit deepfakes.

Surreal, Keir Starmer spews populist far right drivel criticising asylum seekers for getting accommodation, knowing full well that government denies asylum seekers the right to work, which if they did have, they would allow them to pay for their own accommodation while seeking asylum

I guarantee that Green Party leader Zack Polanski speaks for a hell of a lot more Brits than Starmer does when it comes to Donald Trump's shopping list of invasions and brutality.
Darren Jones saying repeatedly the Labour Government won't comment on a hypothetical.
It's not hypothetical - Trump is saying very loudly repeatedly what he's done and boasting about it.
And yet the UK Government won't even say it's a breach of international rules. Shameful.
