Gonna go out on a limb and say that the #UnitedKingdom should definitely let #KierStarmer just serve his term rather than force him out.

After five different Tory leaders, all of whom got worse and worse after the last was forced out, surely you've learnt something?

I'm no #Starmer fan but I don't see anyone else from #Labour doing a better job. He's been the most "strong and stable" PM for over a decade.

On 8 December, politicians in the UK will be debating a petition that reached almost 3 million signatories rejecting mandatory digital ID. If you’re based in the UK, contact your MP through Big Brother Watch’s tool to oppose the plans for a digital ID system. https://bigbrotherwatch.org.uk/campaigns/no2digitalid/#emailMP

No2DigitalID — Big Brother Watch

A national digital ID system is not inevitable. We can stop Britain sleepwalking into becoming a database state. Support our campaign to create a legal right to use non-digital ID!

@eff This legislation is hugely important and politicians must never ever be empowered in this way. Digital ID is wrong on so many levels and for so many reasons I won't go into here. We absolutely do not need it in the #UK and it is anti-British and I am ashamed that this is even a discussion.

The answer is NO. NO to digital ID and you're sacked for even proposing it #STARMEROUT

I think we are past the fork between decent and division.
We passed it when this Labour government decided that trans people have no life and no rights in the UK and must be treated as ‘different’.
We passed it when Labour refused for over a year to recognise a genocide in Gaza.
We passed it when Reeves removed cold weather payment from pensioners.
We passed it when the two child cap was retained. #StarmerOut

I only disagree with Tom on one thing. Starmer is not failing, Starmer is successfully executing the exact plan of the far right he was selected to execute. With centrist optics acceptable to the real enemy: centrist extremism.
