If this had all been about that clown Johnson, tonights headlines would have been:
“Boris comes out fighting to huge rounds of applause and declares he’ll never give up on the country he loves”
Of course we all know Johnson only loved himself & actually caused deaths to the people of this country.

The BBC are still at it, Starmer bashing...
Lab MP's & especially cabinet ministers need to start calling out this biased onslaught live on air.
If they're worried about antagonising the media, they shouldn't.
The BBC & the rest of the media couldn't be any more anti Starmer/ Labour if they tried.

I remember when the news media reported politics with fact and just a tiny bit of speculation.
Now, they all report politics with total speculation, gossip, hearsay, wishful thinking and bias.
Very little fact at all.
The BBC should certainly be better than that.
Yesterday was shameful.

I'm 70 too and completely agree, I've never known anything like it and of course it eventually has an effect. YouGov poll today saying 82% don't trust the media, maybe journalists should be asking why.

In my 70 odd years on the planet, over 50 of which I’ve taken varying degrees of interest in those tasked with running the country, I’ve never seen such biased reporting, across all mediums, as we’ve had since Labour, well Starmer, set foot in no 10. Do you seriously think that hasn’t had an effect?

The media commenting this morning about how Starmers cabinet & colleagues rallied around to defend him yesterday.
Yet the onslaught against him, the people who they had to defend him from, were in fact the media themselves.
We watched the media actively & openly trying to bring down an elected PM.

Starmer is basically a polite man, which is a quality, but I’d like to see him get a bit angry with the political press and media at times.
Take them on, challenge their bias.
What’s he got to lose?
I think the public would love it.
They are far more unpopular than the politicians from what I see.

Just how stupid are the political reporters in this country these days?
Mason, Rigby, Peston, Neil etc. all calling it wrong, time and time again.
Any other job and they would be gone.
Whatever your politics, let’s face it, they are useless.

The media have overplayed their hand when it comes to the calls for Starmer to go.
Perhaps it’s time to see some of the political journalists who rose to prominence under the last government go instead.
Political journalism has never looked so irrelevant

So that went well for the Scottish Labour leader...
Perhaps he will now be the one resigning?
If so, good riddance to a self serving 2nd class politician.

Does our media control who is in government, or do we, the people, who elected Sir Keir Starmer for a 5 year term, get to decide?
The media have been trying to remove him from power since day 1, to over the decision we made.

Not Corbyn (despite 2 attempts), not Burnham (couldn't even win the leadership- twice).
Yet they want to self destruct, citing the distraction.
Of course they mean the distraction that Sarwar & other self serving creeps are causing.
Of course finding a new PM won't be a distraction😒

BREAKING: A Downing Street spokesman says:
“Keir Starmer is one of only four Labour leaders ever to have won a general election.
“He has a clear five-year mandate from the British people to deliver change, and that is what he will do.”

Since the GE I have been defending Lab, saying they are so much better than the Tories.
However, when I see Lab MPs calling for Starmer to resign, I question whether they are any better than the Tories.
Simply, swapping PM's, like the Tory fiascos of recent years does us the people, no good at all.

It might seem trivial, but when BBC news says:
"Starmer under pressure re Peter Mandelson appointment".
Rather than saying:
"Keir Starmer under pressure re Mandelson appointment".
I think you get the idea of the media bias against the PM and their role in trying to bring him down.

Now this is a reason to oust a leader of a country, unlike the pathetic fiasco in the UK over Keir Starmer.
In the UK, the media and a certain portion of the electorate want to install Farage, who is no more than a pound shop version of Trump.
These two men are vile racists.

The media & the Tory/Reform morons, couldn't care less about Epsteins victims, nor Mandelson really.
Its just another opportunity to try & oust Starmer.

All this Starmer drama reminds me so much of 2010 and Gordon Brown.
Another good man and a great PM, but deemed boring, brought down because the media and the gullible public wanted a toff like Cameron and a smoothy creep like Clegg instead.
