Hardcore will never die, but you will.
- Driest spring on record. The grass is already turning brown. It’s May 14 🤷♂️ www.lbc.co.uk/weather/uk-s...
- If you aren’t yet aware of just how much the Israeli state lies, often comically so, listen to the upcoming interview with their spokesperson on Radio 4 at around 08:10 this morning.
- This whole 'he didn't mean it that way' Starmer thing is doing my head in. If it can be interpreted like that by the people you're aiming it at, or by the people you're effectively attacking, then you meant it but you're doing it as sub text. It's the 'was it a Nazi salute?' thing all over again. 🤦♀️

View full threadI get what people are saying but either Starmer is naive or it's deliberate. Neither is a good look but the language is deeply upsetting for many immigrants which is enough to make it problematic.
- They knew exactly what they were doing. They will have gone over every single word of that announcement many times. The mistake they made was thinking we’re stupid enough to fool.
- Remember when you heard so many times over the last 20 years that there’s still time to avoid dangerous climate change? Well, we did very little and that time has now gone. That’s how it works. Carry on. 🤷♂️🙄🤷♂️
- Does crashing past 1.5°C of warming mean the end of the world? If you mean the collapse of civilisation then no. But we are witnessing the end of the net zero world view. jamesdyke.substack.com/p/its-the-en...
- London going full steam ahead again at 8 degrees above average😮🔥 Norwich positively icy at only 3 degrees above average. 🥶 🤷♂️🙄🤷♂️
- I cannot state this strongly enough: If you are upset about the way this government is treating trans people and immigrants, and you have a Labour MP, for God sake write to them.

View full threadI have heard this tune before. Those who play it might possibly have failed to understand how elections in the UK under FPTP work. Because Corbyn with his 10 and 12 million votes failed to get elected and Starmer with his 9 got a landslide majority. All of which is the case whether I like it or not
- Desperate. Starmer was more popular with the electorate- that but is simple maths. Starmer got elected because Tory voters deserted their party for others. Not because of votes for him. For more information, please reread.
- Probably couldn't, because he'd never have been elected
- Interesting.
- Won’t be long before everybody always knew what Keir Starmer was and never really supported him. Centrists, lol.
- Corbyn did exactly what you wanted.
