Sir Keir Starmer's first five years as Labour Party leader have seen dramatic highs and lows - but the next five will perhaps be even more challenging.

I found this interesting. It looks back at Sir Keir’s five years as the leader of Labour.

Here’s an interesting quote:

He turned left to win the party leadership and turned right to win a general election.

And regarding his campaign for the Labour leadership in 2020:

To win the backing of left-wing Labour activists, he backed a wealth tax on the top 5% of earners, abolishing university tuition fees, nationalising water and energy and restoring freedom of movement between the UK and EU countries. Whatever happened to those promises?

    Exactly so. The beady eyed cunt says and does what he needs to, to obtain power.

    He demonstrated that the left wing support was fake, purely for political gain, by taking from the most desperate in society to balance the books despite growing calls from millionaires themselves for a wealth tax.

    The fucker is bent as a nine bob note as my granddad used to say.
