Keir Starmer will say whatever he thinks you want to hear without actually meaning what he says

 

Keir Starmer's turnaround regarding ULEZ, about tuition fees and about two-children welfare payments tell you everything you want to know. He made promises to Stop Oil to get their financial support and to show certain factions of his own political party that he is truthful about environmental goals, but this is about it.

Keir Starmer is the kind of politician that will make meaningless promises. He will kneel down and tell you that he believes that women have penises and whatever else he thinks is popular only to turn against what he says if he senses that such statements will not bring him votes and his is oblivious to the feelings of segments of his own party that go against his declared official policies. If you need somebody that will take into account the entire country, Keir Starmer is not the man for the job.

As the budget to deal with illegal immigrants rises and rises, he will continue talking about open floodgates because segments of his own party have been indoctrinated to accept what is illegal and pretend that breaking laws and entering the country illegally for the benefit of criminal gangs is perfectly legal and normal. Such lack of consistency is dangerous as it is criminal. If you are a man in charge of enforcing laws and make a political career based on ignoring laws, then you are no different from a career criminal.

The Labour Party has quality politicians like Andy Burham. What the heck is the Labour Party thinking about when it chooses people like Keir Starmer. Things have got to the point when long term Labour supports are being preventing from standing and such is the case of Mayoral Candidate that chose to abandon the Labour Party to stand as independent because the London clique does not want to stand to represent its own constituents.

Andy Burham is consistent and experienced and it has proved it as Mayor of Manchester. Unfortunately, according to the Labour Party rules, Andy Burham cannot stand for Leader because he is not a member of Parliament. 

And what example is Keir Starmer giving to Londoners, when he turned around and accused Sadiq Khan saying that Sadiq Khan's policies lost the Labour Party the election in Uxbridge? Next year, there will be elections for Mayor of London and the London Assembly. Keir Starmer is dividing his own political party, having more political turnarounds than a merry-go-round, making statements about things he does not really believe, and failing to listen to Labour Party supporters.

Labour and Liberal Democrats: Promises made in Opposition are forgotten when in Government

The Labour Party has been banging about renationalisation of train services for decades. It has been the talk practically every single election including the election of 1997 that Labour won with a landslide majority. Unfortunately, as soon as they got into power for thirteen years, they forgot about and found all kind of justifications not to implement what they had promised in order to get elected.

The same Labour Party while in Opposition under both Margaret Thatcher and John Major, constantly asked for the renegotiation of the Common Agricultural Police and of all treaties that were damaging British farming and British fisheries. As soon as they got in power in 1997, the Labour Party completely forgot about it. As political party in power, the Labour Party created University Tuition Fees. Now, because there is an election, the Labour Party talks about abolishing University Tuition Fees and the Liberal Democrats that promised to abolish University Tuition Fees also forgot completely about its electoral promises as soon as they formed a coalition with the Conservative Party.

When it comes to policing, Labour Party representatives make promises about increasing the number of Police officers. The only problem they have is that they don't have a clue about how much it would cost to fund such increase in numbers of Police officers. They constantly talk about cutting down crime, crime that they themselves created by flooding the United Kingdom with foreign criminals.

Most politicians don't have a clue about money

Most politicians don't have a clue about money. They promise hundreds of thousands of new homes and all kinds of benefits but they don't know how they are going to pay for it.

Dianne Abbot is not alone. How many Police officers? How are you going to pay for them? Quite a few promises but not the knowledge or the ability to reply.

We have 650 Members of Parliament. How many of them are actually fit for purpose? Tuition Fees anyone? Nick Clegg and the Liberal Democrats made promises about Tuition Fees and they didn't actually deliver. But they are not alone in this kind of habit. The Green Party makes promises about this and about that. Well, the Green Party can promise whatever because they absolute know that they will not have to deliver. They can fool those who vote for the Green on the ticket of Saving the Planet.

We call it Democracy. Democracy? So paying for more than 800 Members of the House of Lords is Democracy? Paying for ignorant idiots who use the words Racist and Anti-Semite to stop having a real debate is a complete waste of money, time and space.

What the so called Remainers are angry about is that they stand to lose all the privileges that they get for doing absolutely nothing. Year on year, the United Kingdom has been sending truckloads of money to support a useless bureaucracy called European Union.

Why did the British people vote to Leave? Because they don't want to be robbed both in the United Kingdom and in the European Union. For more than forty years, the United Kingdom has been milked by parasites and the parasites are angry because a growing number of people who are aware of their deeds don't want to continue supporting their lifestyles.

The issue about Elections in the United Kingdom is not only about First Past the Post and Proportional Representation. We need to take control of British politics. Do we need more than 800 Lords and 650 Members of Parliament? What about regional assemblies? What about local and regional authorities? Where is the expertise that justifies the election of individuals that don't have a club about what they are doing or promising to do?

Democracy has been degraded by the very same people who are supposed to defend Democracy. It will come the day when the very existence of Democracy will be questioned.
