Ah yes…but that was all part of McSweeney’s #LabourTogether plan. Pick an un-ideological candidate. Make them appear leftwing to get Momentum member votes and then just reprogram them once they become leader and PM to continue the status quo and Toryism
But was #Starmer conscious of this or is he literally the Manchurian Candidate?
Not surprising, I bet that Starmer hopes (as Trump does) that the latest Middle East ‘intervention’ will distract people.

#Starmer right now is clinging to the leadership of the #Labour party by his fingernails.
He’s not a popular man with the electorate as evidenced by the crushing Labour defeat in Gorton and Denton by-election.
He’s not popular with his party. His rivals are circling.
The small centre right cult that propelled him to power, #LabourTogether has been rumbled…McSweeney has gone along with Josh Simons this weekend.
Convenient timing for war then…not the done thing to change leader at this time
A key figure in #LabourTogether, Josh Simons resigns as a Minister from #Starmer ‘s Cabinet while all eyes are on #Trump and #Iran….how very convenient.

Meanwhile the centre right cult #LabourTogether that is killing the #Labour party continues on its doomed mission to be #Reform Lite:
‘Shabana Mahmood will press on with hardline immigration policies despite calls for a reversal from unions and left-leaning #Labour MPs after the #Green party’s byelection victory.’
