@lembitopik The Winker Song share.google/X58xTmjINrQsoX…

What song best describes Keir Starmer?

@ProfJMitchell What you been smoking? “Alison Johnstone showed independence” - on what planet?

Scottish Parliament must have an independent authoritative Presiding Officer. I suggested Alison Johnstone 5 years ago as likely choice only to be told privately that Green group decided to forego POship. At least to her credit, AJ showed independence... 1/2

@daveatherton Digby-Jones was a top man. He was ex navy, CEO of ICI, and a regular contributor to Thought for the Day. I tend to believe him.

Lord Digby-Jones was a Junior Trade Minister in the 2000s. He said you could get rid of half the civil service & not notice the difference. He added he was astonished how many were incompetent & needed sacking. Please leave, so we can adopt the American model of political appointments instead of your liberal group think nonsense.

@DAK2059 @LeeHarris @PotentialMCR @bphillipsonMP She’s doing what Labour appear to do best - tell untruths!

@LeeHarris @PotentialMCR @bphillipsonMP is looking rather stupid.

"Seriously, Keir Starmer did not come up on the doorstep?" "Genuinely, sincerely, no." Haha. Bridget Phillipson laughably says that barely anyone mentioned Keir Starmer on the doorstep. Absolute WHOPPER of a lie. You can tell Trevor didn't believe a word of it 😂

@afneil @MrJWEsq Much more realistic assessment than the one from @Peston I read earlier. Mt Peston this is real journalism not sycophantic b/s

So far Starmer’s efforts to save his skin have been a classic case study in how not to save your skin: The most unpopular Labour PM in history (Starmer) calls in aid the second most unpopular Labour PM in history (Brown). With most Labour MPs despising you and willing to grant you, at most, a civilised stepping down over some months, you say you’ll be in power for a decade. Labour MPs’ worst nightmare. You commission a propaganda film of you, Brown, Rachel Reeves and Harriet Harman looking smug and self-satisfied in the Downing Street garden, complete with meaningful music. How divorced from public opinion can you be? You signal you’re fresh out of new blood (Brown? Harman?) and new ideas (getting close to the EU is the best you can come up with — hardly a game changer). You think a ‘reset’ speech (again!) can turn things round? You’re truly delusional. THE END.

@anon_opin Just proves how politicised the civil service is. You are also too scared to post in your own name - why?

Civil servant here. If Farage wins the next GE, he'll call us all back to the office 5 days a week. The CS will then be on the verge of collapse, as thousands of people will either retire immediately or quit, due to the removal of WFH. Cheap optics will meet reality.

@itvnews @Peston Very weak analysis imho.

Keir Starmer's unpopularity appears to be a major reason for Labour's local election woes, according to MPs and ministers. Here, ITV Political Editor @Peston gives his analysis of why voters dislike the prime minister so much.

@ScottishSun Just proves that some Scots are completely mad- perhaps that’s why so many vote SNP.

@CamillaTominey @GBNEWS Far too soft on Phillipson

HUGE show! Tune in from 930am only on @GBNEWS

@HakunaMatata26C Great headline

The best headline this morning.. "IF STARMER HAD A PLOT, HE'S LOST IT"! 👏👏👏

@Keir_Starmer Your reflection is to appoint Brown and Harman - that’s suicidal and shows no reflection whatsoever.

It’s important that we reflect and respond to these results - we haven’t done enough to offer people hope for the future. In the coming days I’ll be setting out the path ahead.

@ThomasSowell There is little wonder so many people dislike @Keir_Starmer

Keir Starmer: "Muslims are successful, brilliant, and creative people. They have made an enormous contribution to Britain's history, in goodness, art, and education. They are the face of modern Britain.”

@BurnsideWasTosh @Iromg @Keir_Starmer @HarrietHarman Louise Haig as Minister for Fraud too.

@Keir_Starmer @HarrietHarman Have you considered bringing back Lord Mandelson as Minister for Ethics? Tulip Sadiq as your envoy to Bangladesh?

I’m delighted to appoint @HarrietHarman as my Adviser on Women and Girls. Harriet is a strong advocate for women and girls and I know she will deliver greater opportunity for women in public life. I’m committed to tackling structural misogyny that is a barrier for too many women and girls. I look forward to working with Harriet to drive forward action on this important issue.

@JamesEsses @PeterOuld And has connection to paedophiles

Harriet Harman, who has previously stated that “transwomen are women” has just been appointed by Keir Starmer as his ‘Advisor on Women and Girls’. This Labour government continues to make a mockery of women and biological reality.

@Keir_Starmer @HarrietHarman A woman who supported paedophiles and thinks women can have a penis. She will really help. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

@PolitlcsUK The man who sold all our gold. Starmer is definitely taking the pee.

🚨 BREAKING: Keir Starmer has appointed Gordon Brown as his Special Envoy for Global Finance

@GBNEWS The people spoke with the Brexit vote. Unfortunately none of the main parties listened and hence we are where we are now. Labour are still not listening.

Keir Starmer blames Brexit as he 'takes responsibility' for Labour's historic local election losses gbnews.com/politics/keir-…

@Artemisfornow And Bailey is a Fabian

Oh look… The Bank of England boss backs Starmer’s EU reset. Against the democratic will of the people. A reminder … The Bank of England is a Quango, its staff are unelected. They will never face the people.

@Steven_Swinford This Harriet Harman bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

First move of the day from Keir Starmer as he seeks to shore up his authority He’s appointed Baroness Harman, a former Labour deputy leader, as his adviser on women and girls She will focus on ‘tackling violence against women and girls, unlocking economic opportunity and improving representation’ She will also seek to ‘drive a shift in culture across the civil service and ministerial offices’ to enhance opportunities for women

@BethRigby @HarrietHarman The same Harriet Harman who shared a stage with the paedophile information exchange and who thinks women can have a penis?

NEW: Keir Starmer has appointed @HarrietHarman as the PM’s adviser on Women and Girls as part of No 10’s shakeup after the local elections. Harman was doing a similar role at the FCDO with Cooper. “The PM committed to do more to eradicate structural misogyny and achieve a cultural change. This appointment will help to accelerate progress”
