JK has now started wanging on about 15 minute cities and that has nothing to do with biological sex. She’s radicalized.

Hi Stephen. I think our problem (assuming I’m included in this as someone who doesn’t think Starmer is the worst pm ever) is that as you say he does something competent and decisive and the universal framing from virtually every journo is negative. “Diminished Keir Starmer”.

Well quite, but big tech have turned into neo nazi white supremacists. Not sure they care about any welfare.
Outrights bans will have a massive impact on queer kids, disabled kids, rural kids… When the biggest issue is clearly with older white men. Just feels like a cop-out comfort blanket.

Or wait for actual evidence before yet again banning shit for other people? Just good governance no?

Or you might keep the focus on the actual nazis murdering people in plain sight rather than try and turn this into another anti-starmer story, but hey ho 🤷♂️

This was the only viable decision once Burnham declared war. It’s done. We move on.

Cowardly? Only if you think punching yourself in the face is brave. Factional? Mate, this was all Andy Burnham’s doing. Long-term counter-strategic? To bring on an expensive future mayoral by-election that is very losable given current political insanity is counter-strategic.

And here’s a member that would leave under Burnham. His hissy fit this weekend was pathetic. A selfish arrogant fool.

Not all members! Some of us despise him for this. He has made a lot of enemies. And yet again his political intelligence is found wanting. Not the bloody centre left messiah!

Fully agreed. He’s caused a big ruction that helps no one but (possibly) himself, and his messiah-complex followers. Big fight now, take the inevitable hit, wait for the next bonkers fascist story to emerge from trumps America and move the dialogue.

Oh cmon! We’ve avoided the big orange baby’s biggest tariffs since the pedo-protector was elected. It has probably counted for something. Just not eternal protection.
