Yet another step to the right.

Yet another abandonment of just principles.

Yet another let down.

Labour partly rows back on workers’ rights pledges

Starmer says he will NOT change 2-child cap impoverishing 1.5 million kids

‘Laser-focused on winning’... and changing nothing as they pander to the right and adopt Tory economic policy that leaves us with prolonged austerity.

For context...

Starmer's Labour made a £28bn/yr green investment pledge, which they've since u-turned on
bbc.com/news/uk-politics-65857

They also pledged to block all new North Sea oil & gas projects

You cannot trust Labour on the critical steps needed to avert a climate catastrophe.

@QLC

Yet strangely silent about Antoinazzi's and Duffield's (both Labour MPs) vile words and behaviour in the recent Westminster 'debate' about removing trans people from the Equality Act.

Also silent about Duffield instigating a twatter pile on against a trans woman who was interviewed on ITV.

thepinknews.com/2023/06/30/ros

They have they gall to criticise others for 'using trans people as a political football'.

The hypocrisy of the Labour Party is sickening 🤮

Labour vows to ‘fix the holes in Boris Johnson’s Brexit deal’

Labour “will not go back into the EU or rejoin the customs union or restore freedom of movement,” the party’s Shadow Trade Secretary Nick Thomas-Symonds told business leaders at the Trade Unlocked conference in Birmingham that it “would work to reset our trading relationships.”

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

UK economy in growth ‘doom loop’ after decades of underinvestment

The governments led by Blair, Brown, Cameron (and Clegg!), May, Johnson and Sunak are all implicated in this downward spiral. With Starmer harking back to the Blair/Brown days there's little prospect of things improving either. In fact, the IPPR explicitly calls out the opportunity in green technology but Labour have scaled back promises around green investment already.

"...Driscoll shouldn’t have discussed the films but instead attacked Loach’s politics. On that basis, Starmer ought to be disqualified for appearing with Loach on the BBC’s Question Time – and so too should the shadow foreign secretary, David Lammy, who in 2019 wrote a paean in this paper to Loach’s Sorry We Missed You, praising the way it “brings across how the right to a family life has been eroded in modern Britain”."

Stop getting Brexit wrong, Labour’s born-again Brexiteer Starmer tells Tories

, taking a stance that's flying against public opinion so they can appease right wing Tory voters who think immigrants are the cause of all the country's ills.

Good work Maddie.
They work for us.

If the twat is going to do nothing again, at least make them jump through hoops trying to justify it.

Keir Starmer Now Opposes Scrapping Westminster's Voting System for PR in Blow for Reformers

Labour is NOT a democratic political party. Starmer is ignoring a huge majority for electoral reform and condemning the whole country to an unfair and unjust system of democracy.

"Last week, Labour introduced rules over the city’s constituencies so that the party’s ruling national body will choose council candidates instead of leaving the decision to local members."

Just in case you thought the Labour Party cared about democracy.
