Starmer abandons plans to cancel local elections

Worse than RR?

Oh yeah

Why didnt Labour get it's legal advice right in the first place?

Well generally speaking, two lawyers = three opinions. And Boris and his lawyers got the proroguing wrong so it’s hardly the first time

I have a friend who is not a Labour supporter.

She said she would prefer Sir Kier, as thinks other options are worse.

I’m not a labour supporter but the thought of Angela Rayner, Rachel Reeves or Ed Milliband in charge is frightening. Till we have an election it’s probably better the devil you know

Am I the only one here who voted for him and doesn't want him to go?

I want him to man up and do his job, because I think the alternative will be chaos.

I think it is already chaos.

fwiw, I dont see why someone else cant do the job.
Out of all the MPs there are currently.

You ain't seen nothing yet the economy could be doing a whole lot worse

Are Reform lawyers cleverer?

Total waste of a vast amount of money. Still bullies win so some will be happy. Think of what could be done with the money, on second thoughts don't as it's depressing.

I think he must have got stuck in the 'U' bend 😂

I would rather he stayed.

I should think he doesn’t know which way is up after all his U turns and flip flops. 🤣

Law seems to be in a mess.
In more ways than one.

Unless lawyers are becoming ever more clever,

My area is affected by this - so we’ll now have elections. It’ll be interesting to see what happens with Reform. FWIW I think it’s a waste of money with the reorganisation coming up and all the resources that needs. However in another way , if Reform do well in the elections, it gives them time to mess up before the elections for the new unitary authorities so people can see them for what they are. So I’m probably on balance in favour.

Good. I really hope Labour get a bloody nose and it makes them sit up and listen/take notice of how the country's feeling. I know that local elections and general elections cannot be compared but it will still send a message out 🤞🤞

He doesn't care how the country's feeling. If he did, he'd resign. Useless man. He's a "human rights lawyer" first and foremost, always was, always will be. It's not conducive with being PM, just doesn't work, too many conflicts of interest.

Yep, you're right Oreo, he should have been long gone by now.

Farage was taking him to court about it. Obviously Keir didn't appreciate the legalities

Flip, flop, flip, flop, flip. flop. flip, flop, flip, flop, flip, flop, flip, flop, again and again and again and again ad nausium

This is what I keep writing about the Law.

Loads of loopholes.
If someone can find one.
