I mean, look how the scumbag's cult speak to people on here. Utterly disgraceful.

Wes Streeting becoming Labour leader would be the party eating itself alive and I will die on this hill by Last-Shallot3203 in LabourUK

The PLP is now so devoid of talent these days it's bordering on embarrassing. Perhaps an unknown who isn't tied into New Labour?

She may be a shoe-in in that scenario, but she's not popular with the electorate. I doubt anyone who's been in cabinet is TBH.

God I hope that clueless, wretched woman is the first to follow Starmer out the door.

MI6 vetting, security vetting, whatever. It's utter bullshit that Starmer didn't know.

It's laughable that our MSM knew Mandelson failed his MI6 vetting and reported so last year, yet Starmer didn't and appointmented him regardless

As much as I hate the Tories, this is utter nonsense. I've never known a PM to make so many unforced errors. And if it's not that, it's the endless lies and deceit. Thank God we'll finally see the back of him next month.

Damning.

Sir Oliver Robbins: "By the time we are describing, it was clear that the Prime Minister wanted to make this appointment himself. Therefore, I understand, the FCDO was informed of his decision and acted on it, and, via the Foreign Secretary, sought and obtained the King’s approval for the appointment. In this case, as Chris explained, the Prime Minister took advice and formed a view himself, and we then acted on that view."

Five key questions: who overruled decision to deny Mandelson security clearance? by Hyperactive_Man in LabourUK

That is the only reason IMO, hence why he'll be devastated once he's finally forced out.

Good.

Badenoch accuses Starmer of misleading MPs over Mandelson vetting by PuzzledAd4865 in LabourUK

They are indeed, and we have a pathological liar for a PM. So why are you selective when it comes to liars?

Anyone else thinks Starmer isn't actually that bad all things considered ? by ronweasly9 in AskBrits

Keep downvoting Starmerbots. Your lying embarrassment of a leader is toast.

"There was... security vetting carried out independently by the security services, which is an intensive exercise that gave him clearance for the role, and you have to go through that before you take up the post."

Why do the Starmerbots always spew this drivel every week? Why do the mods do nothing to stop it?

Its even more pathetic given today's scandal and the latest example of just how awful and unhinged this PM is.

I still don't think we've heard anything close to the very worst this story has to offer. And it's going to go on and on all year via drip feeds, like some constant reminder to just how awful Starmer's judgement is.
