MEME MONDAY #83

Another bumper crop of memes from Karl to get through.  If it seemed like a long week, imagine how Chairman Starmer felt as he took blow after blow, day after day.  Remarkably, he emerged at the end of the week still at the helm and with no apparent intention of going anywhere.  Credit where it's due, the robot is clinging on.  For now...

didn't quite have the numbers to launch an immediate leadership
challenge and he'll now have to sit on the backbenches and await the
outcome of the Makerfield by-election

followers - like much of the country - are no longer interested in the blue half of
the Uniparty

foiled by Ramsay Bolton (Farage)

country and I'll defend it"

things, but no-one can deny that the author has a debilitating command of words
when it comes to rubbishing her opponents.  This was a cracking rebuke for
Starmer.

Ukraine.  Scant return for £22billion sent to that country in the last four years!
Sun 17 May - 32 shares

A diverse series of Facebook Stories were put out last week.  Note that we are playing Devil's advocate somewhat with Starmer's leadership woes.  The truth is that we don't actually want him to go - he is the greatest threat to the Labour party in existence right now.  Toxic isn't the word!  Keep Keir!!

WHO'S QUIT TODAY?


The roll call of rebels and resignations continues to grow, as pressure increases on Keir Starmer.  The first ministerial resignation was confirmed prior to a Cabinet meeting in Number Ten at 09:30.  Communities minister Miatta Fahnbulleh (Peckham) wrote: "Our country faces enormous challenges and people are crying out for the scale of change that this requires.  The public does not believe that you can lead this change – and nor do I".

Starmer survived the Cabinet meeting relatively unscathed by all accounts, but he is reported to have refused point blank to meet with a group of ministers after the meeting.  The group apparently wanted to discuss his leadership.  Is he in denial?  Many of those in attendance were pictured entering Downing Street in good spirits and all smiles, in particular Dave Lammy, but also Peter Kyle, Darren Jones, Liz Kendall and Lord Hermer.  On the other hand, Wes Streeting and Ed Miliband arrived stony-faced.  Game faces?

More than three hours then passed, before Jess Phillips (Birmingham Yardley) quit her role as safeguarding minister.  She ended her resignation statement thus: "I'm not seeing the change I think I, and the country expect, and so cannot continue to serve as a minister under the current leadership".

Less than 45 minutes later a third minister resigned.  Alex Davies-Jones (Pontypridd), victims minister, wrote: "I implore you to act in the country's interest and set out a timetable for your departure".

There was another gap until the next resignation, with health minister Zubir Ahmed (Glasgow South West) breaking the news at 16:28:  "It is clear from recent days, that the public across the UK has now irretrievably lost confidence in you as prime minister".  Ahmed is the second resignation from Wes Streeting's department, following yesterday's departure of Joe Morris.

We will update this page if the resignations continue this evening.

MEME MONDAY #58

The national rape gang inquiry was very much a prominent feature last week.  Karl wasn't too well, after coming down with one of the many viruses floating around.  He got going again by the weekend and we will be concentrating on digital IDs again this week, seeing as Starmer is really pushing hard on them at the moment.  We are urging everyone to contact their local MP about the issue, especially if they are a Labour or Tory MP who hasn't spoken out on the issue.

We can do this!

most paedophiles in the UK are white males, just as the last inquiry did
under the Tories. This is a gaslighting tactic to distract from the fact
that Pakistani men are far more likely to be engaged in rape gangs
per capita
Sat 25 Oct - 40 shares. The release of this particular individual at this
moment in time was incredibly suspect, even more so given the testimony of a
delivery driver who was present during the release. The driver claims that
rather than flee, the migrant repeatedly went back to the reception to ask
staff where he was supposed to go

media interview in which he struggled to coherently explain Labour's Brexit
position.  He left the party after being deselected at the end of his term as
North of Tyne metro mayor. It's important that we get across to everyone that
opposition to digital ID is a non-partisan issue that unites the political spectrum

Two Facebook Stories graced our pages last week...

MEME MONDAY #41

Karl was away last week, so the memes were a little more intermittent than usual.  The week was populated by several comical efforts, with mixed results, although the Ed Miliband meme went far and wide...

Mon 23 Jun - 491 shares on the main Facebook page
Tue 24 Jun - 113 shares on the backup Facebook page
Wed 25 Jun - 11 shares.  Aww, bless Zarah.
Wed 25 Jun - 708 shares
Thu 26 June - 60 shares.  The second in a series of similar
memes, mocking Blair's desperate attempts to promote
digital IDs in the name of anything and everything.
Sadly, there are too many comments that indicate
ignorance and/or anathema to the digital ID/CBDC
totalitarian social credit plan.
Thu 26 Jun - 1,027 shares
