Does Labour Leader Keir “Entirely-my-own-choices” Starmer really love Stormzy?
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer is “determined to unite the party” and “committed to rooting out anti-Semitism”. Many are talking of a leftwing purge, which Keir emphatically denies, saying “we’re far better united”.
However, he has suspended his predecessor, who was for a large proportion of Labour Party members, the life and soul of the party. He has also purged the party of a pro-Corbyn contingent in Bristol West constituency on 13 November. While he has pledged to “work constructively” with Boris Johnson, he can’t do so with the Left roots of his own party.
For the record,
Starmer isn’t supposed to get involved in individual disciplinary cases, although he has had to make some “very difficult decisions” with regard to “that particular case”. I’m not the first to ask which is it?
But the latest piece of fun is that Sir Keir has been picking desert island discs for Lauren Laverne. Laverne literally asked him if he’d had a focus group behind his choices. He said no. And yet.
The BBC reported: “Among the songs that Sir Keir chose were the England football anthem Three Lions by The Lightning Seeds”. But not everyone was fooled.
You know this is supposed to scream — I’m a patriot, I love England, I like normal blokey stuff, not like that Commie who came before me. He can’t even talk about music without being unprincipled.
Not only that, but Starmer made a point of digging Stormzy who, you know, massively dug Corbyn.
My man, Jeremy! Young Jeremy, my guy. I dig what he says. I saw some sick picture of him from back in the day when he was campaigning about anti-apartheid and I thought: yeah, I like your energy. Have you seen that footage of House of Commons? They’re all neeky dons! The way they all laugh and cheer. Is this fucking Game Of Thrones? You lot have got real issues to talk about and deal with. That’s why I like Jeremy: I feel like he gets what the ethnic minorities are going through and the homeless and the working class. That Zac guy, he just seems like a fucking arsehole.
I wonder who is more of a neeky don, Zac Goldsmith or Keir Starmer?
I also wonder what Corbyn would choose, if he were asked in 2020. It’s mere speculation, but…
