Wow! Starmer owns a field. Clearly not fit to be leader

Iv`e yet to hear of a poor polition.
So whats new.

Hahaha gillybob.

So they employed staff to work in the donkey sanctuary?

No idea, Annie. Why do you ask?

Is he really so “out standing in his field”?

Love that song by Brad Paisley .

I love donkeys but I would hate one living in a field next to me (not that there are any ....£10 million or otherwise) they’re really cute but very noisy when they start all that braying .

However I haven’t read the article so can only say it doesn’t actually sound like the man has done anything wrong. Are labour politicians no allowed to earn and spend money?

This shows how pathetic the whole story is.

“I've read the Mail on Sunday 'story' twice so that you don't have to. Keir Starmer bought a field behind his parents' house in 1996 so his late mother could care for rescue donkeys. That's it. That's the story. It would be hilarious if it wasn't so emblematic of our broken media.“

annie I doubt people’s vote depend on which candidate owns a field

My point is that the Daily Mail thinks it does.

If this is a pointless thread how about the 83 threads about harry and Meghan.?

I like donkeys..

...but not in no.10...

How much did Johnson earn as a journalist writing all those desperately important columns?

Hahaha Furret!

Ah yes the The Daily Mail - the paper whose owner did not deny claiming tax concessions as "non-dom", though he insisted this was because his father had lived in France. Lord Rothermere acquired France as his "domicile of birth" upon his birth as his father acquired a French "domicile of choice" by becoming a tax exile in Paris."

Is that the same tax dodger or am I wrong? Isn’t he a big mate of Cameron, who went to the same schools as Boris? No interest to declare? Of course not!

Must be getting desperate if sinking to donkey fields.

Sorry Gagajo and Gillybob. Crossed posts!

Gillybob, genuine question. What are Keir Starmer’s ‘other ‘ failures you referred to in your post of 8.40.41?

I echo Maizied. What other failings? I know nothing about the bloke.

Queen's Council, which is what KS was, earn high fees. They also work incredibly hard, long hours in order to do so. KS did so much pro bono work at his Chambers he was advised to do some paid work.

The notion that people who support the LP, or are MP's, or Labour leaders should not be successful in their line of work stinks a bit.

gillybob - if you're referring to the Saville and grooming gangs, you're basing your criticism on false information.

So they employed staff to work in the donkey sanctuary?

08.54. Sarcasm, Annie

P.S. You generally reckon on 1 horse to an acre. I'd say 2 donkeys equal 1 horse, so maximum 14. That's if you didn't want to temporarily fence off a couple of acres to take hay off for the winter. Then fewer donkeys..

I doubt people votes depends on which candidate owns a field

Let's hope they have no aspirations to stand for any political office representing any party apart from the tories, Annie. Field ownership would clearly count against them... ?

I don't think this thread is any more pointless than many others on Gnet.

Maizie , no.

I think the thread is pointless, my younger daughter and son in law are buying a field so she can keep goats.

Really ?

And what 'other failures' would they be, gillybob?
