The Starmer Paradox

Needs must come before wants

He won by offering a safe, steady (boring) pair of hands after years of chaos and delivered what the country wanted

Now he has power to deliver what the country needs…

But he is no longer what the country wants

James,

If Sir Keir Starmer announced at parliament that we were sending troops to remove Israel from Gaza and provide protection to those in the West Bank I would be very happy

If that requires a declaration of war, so be it

Donald Trump :
Bombs being dropped only leads to more bombs being dropped

Also Donald Trump :
I dropped bigly bombs, now where do I pick my Nobel Peace Prize up..?

The IHRA definition of antisemitism includes

“Drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis.”

Well… how can we not..?

The Israeli government have made antisemites of us all

It is written into the withdrawal agreement that we can rejoin the CU & SM with a simple majority in Parliament

Why do you think Boris Johnson didn’t want his “Oven Ready Deal” scrutinised and sent his Mogg to prorogue parliament..?

It would have been voted down by Brexiters

The Fascistic tendency in America is not new, the Patriots Act was overtly fascistic

Fascists always hate it when their fascism is pointed out.

Starmer should use a calculator and make a decision EU or US, we are not strong enough to survive another global economic downturn

And the decision is not easy

It’s either rejoin EU Customs Union & Single Market

Or

Rejoin EU Single Market & Custms Union

I’m counting down to Trump hitting the EU with tariffs and (for about 5 minutes) not hitting the UK…

Until someone points out that Northern Ireland is Schrödinger’s Trading Partner being both in and out of the Customs Union at the same time

And all Starmer’s sucking up will have been for nowt
