Astonishingly awful polling for Starmer, who has destroyed his favourability among everyone especially his own voters, while somehow making Farage more popular. If I was Morgan McSweeney, I would quit my job.

Some other ‘highlights’:

‘This is the first time Keir Starmer has recorded a net negative approval rating among Labour voters.’

Labour is now even more unpopular than the lowest point of Corbyn’s leadership.

EDIT:

Just so I can say ‘I told you so’, if:

  • There isn’t an all-out war in Europe, and,
  • Starmer’s still PM at the next GE

Then he will lose his own seat.

    Because the idiots who think Sadiq favours Muslims, think all Muslims are brown.

    It’s not racist or antisemetic to hate isresl. Nor is it racist or antisemetic to be opposed to having a genocidal zionist with isareli family as the prime minister.

    Jewish people are not all isrelli. Israeli people are not a race. And a great many Jews are actively opposed to zionism and the genocide of Palestinians.

    Stop trying to imply shit.

    Our PM is a zionist with israeli family, who is actively supporting the genocide of Palestinians. This is literally undisputable.

      Criticising Israel is obviously not antisemitic, but you seem to be assuming that Starmer’s wife is Israeli. And even if she was, that wouldn’t necessarily mean that Starmer shows favouritism towards Israel.

        So you’re saying that everything Starmer has done in aid of israel genociding Palestinians, isn’t him showing israllel favouritism? How do you come to that conclusion?

          You said

          Our PM is a zionist with israeli family

          And everyone keeps asking for a citation that his wife is Israeli. Our PM could just simply be an absolute cunt without blood ties.

            And I agreed that I couldn’t find a source. Did you not see that bit?

            The fact that Starmer is actively supporting and funding isreel’s genocide of Palestinians, and he has isreeli family and close ties to the country, should really not be ignored though.

            If our next PM has a spouse with russian heritage and half the family lives in russia, and this PM starts massively funding and politically supporting the russian invasion of Ukraine, while imprisoning pro-Ukraine reporters and protestors… would you also claim the PM having russian family and close ties to russia, was completely irrelevant to their motives?

              I did, but you still reiterated the point hence why people keep calling you out on it.

                No, I stopped mentioning his wife being usraelli after I couldn’t find a source, I kept talking about half the pms family being from isrell instead, which there is a source for.

                It’s like you weren’t actually reading what I wrote and have been making things up to get offended with me over.

                  You must be mixing me up with someone else, because I’m definitely not offended.

                  The PM is a two faced prick, I think we can all agree on that. And that’s really all that matters.

          Maybe Starmer is too pro-Israel, I’m not denying that bit. I just don’t think his wife’s nationality or religion is relevant. Just like I think it would be wrong to assume that Sadiq Khan favours Pakistan when he makes political decisions, just because he has Pakistani heritage.

              Yeah I don’t think their family would be relevant in that case. If the next PM did start supporting Russia then I would criticise them for that decision, regardless of whether family connections influenced their decision or not.

              Anyway. Like I say, we don’t seem to know whether Starmer’s wife even has Israeli citizenship. I definitely think it would be wrong to assume she does just because she’s Jewish.

              But even if Starmer’s wife does have Israeli citizenship, that doesn’t necessarily make Starmer pro-Israel. He might be too pro-Israel, but a hypothetical Israeli wife wouldn’t necessarily make him pro-Israel.
