Keir Starmer did everything he could to be US poodle and his strategy has ended in total humiliation. Both him and Farage are puppets of a hostile foreign nation.
It's obvious that if someone is a bully - you don't just keep appeasing them.
Disastrous strategy by Labour.

Imagine waiting 31 hours in A&E for a hospital bed, stuck on a plastic chair. That’s what Sandra faced at 71 with bladder cancer.
And she's not alone, hundreds of thousands routinely wait 12+ hours for a bed. So why isn't Keir Starmer backing our plan to end 12 hour waits?

I've seldom felt compelled to block people on BlueSky. But the hunger strike has mobilised some people's worst instincts: "Let them die! It's all their fault!" etc etc. It appears to trigger a deep, and deeply disturbing, inhumanity. I must have blocked 20 of them by now.
A number of people on this platform have been claiming that it's not up to government to shorten people's time on remand, however far beyond the statutory limit that time extends.
Well, take it from a very eminent retired judge. It is.
