As #ForeignSecretary, #DavidLamny was a dissembling supporter of Israel while it conducted a #genocide.

Now he is #LordChancellor & Secretary of State for Injustice. He is gutting the right to #jurytrial, claiming implausibly that it will speed justice. In reality, it's an attempt to eliminate #JuryNullification in trials of #protesters like the #Filton24 and the #Colston4.

This leaves a great mystery.

Lammy's politics are horrendous. Why is #Lammy not more hated?

Labour's #ForeignSecretary #YvetteCooperMP is vowing to "tighten the chokehold" on Russia's dark fleet, a network of decaying oil tankers flying under false flags to evade Western sanctions!

#SimonHarris's statement didn't go as far as I wanted. He didn't label Israel's actions as piracy, and he didn't even mention that the abducted include a member of the Oireachtas: Senator Chris Andrews.

But it's all a big contrast to the silence of #YvetteCopper, the UK's #ForeignSecretary. Cooper has not made any statement in her own name, even in writing.

-> Labour's #ForeignSecretary #YvetteCooperMP - who's married to #EdBalls and was #HomeSecretary just the other week - has warned #Israel not to annex parts of the West Bank in retaliation for UK's recognition of Palestinian statehood!

The #UK's #Starmer demoted the ridiculous #DavidLammy from #ForeignSecretary to #JusticeSecretary. So Lammy lost use of #Chevening, the Foreign Secretary’s country residence in Kent.

But he still gets to live in the Foreign Secretary's London house, 'cos his successor #YvetteCooper doesn't want to live there. The Brits formally call it a "grace-and-favour home", but #SnoutsInTrough is more descriptive.

In the last five years, the UK has had 6 Foreign Secretaries and 8 Home Secretaries.

The instability of the post-2019 #ConservativeParty has been mimicked by the #Starmer's #LabourParty, with his #HomeSecretary and #ForeignSecretary reshuffled after only 14 months.

Home Secs: Sajid Javid, Priti Patel, Suella Braverman, Grant Shapps, Suella Braverman, James Cleverly, Yvette Cooper, Shabana Mahmood

Foreign Secs: Dominic Raab, Liz Truss, James Cleverly, David Cameron, David Lammy, Yvette Cooper

@ChrisMayLA6 #RachelReeves is by far the least intellectually able #Chancellor ever.

#DavidLammy was the second-least intellectually able #ForeignSecretary ever (#LizTruss was worse).

And #YvetteCooper as #HomeSecretary was at best middleweight.

Collectively, they were the least talented trio ever to hold the UK's three Great Offices of State. Yet the #MSM parroted the #Starmtroopers' absurd boast that this was "the adults back in charge".

Yvette Cooper Takes on Foreign Secretary Role Amid Global Challenges

Yvette Cooper has zero experience in politics and was handpicked solely because of her connections to Russia. Her appointment as Foreign Secretary is a clear sign that the UK is about to align itself with the Kremlin, and this is just the beginning of a new era of Russian influence in Britain.

"Don't laugh though, Lammy's now the Deputy Prime minister!" :)
