Ffs, posts now saying what Starmer should have said about flags, they are basically echoing what Starmer said but using different words. Is he now expected to consult us all before he speaks.

What reason do those who want him to either call a GE or stand aside for a leadership contest give? It's total bull crap.
As I've said before, only in the UK in 2025 can the PM be criticised for both what he says & for not saying the various things people think he should have said. Completely nuts 🙄
Exactly! It's utterly preposterous and led by dedicated moaners who have to bitch to feel important. The Tedious Ones.
I can obviously think of a few gaffs, but on the whole Starmer is proving himself to be one of the best PMs we've had in years. Not a high bar after the Tories those critics will say, but the good he's done in just the 1st year outweighs the disappointing. He's said all I need him to say re flags 🤷
I have seen two almost identical posts today from big accounts saying starmer is not the man for the moment. Not only is it utter shite but seems to be a coordinated attack
I don't know why they're doing it, he just ignores them maybe that's their problem.
Attention, clicks and money probably
On autopilot. No actual thinking involved.
Mail on head. Don’t let follower numbers fool you. Look at interaction. It’s not that great. Just trying to keep the gravy train going.
I've noticed a few of them reposting the same link every day with ver few likes each time.
Yep. Devil’s in the detail.
NAIL goddamit
Me too. The key point is ‘big accounts’. Look at their ratio of likes to followers. It’s fractional. They got where they are trashing the Tories. Day after the election they’re like “Shit. How do I keep my followers? I know. I’ll bash Labour.” All self serving bollocks from them.
What bugs me is that so many of us followed them because we thought we were on the same side and now realise they take the Groucho Marks attitude to principles.
It’s very easy to unfollow them.
Yep. Flick of the finger and MUTED! Very satisfying.
I did but kept seeing posts, so I have started blocking them now.
I do and when they're really bugging me mute them.
Bots and trolls.
Pretty much the same as a post from Mike Galsworthy and that Labour MP's video that Ian Dunt liked. It is tiring.....
I've seen at least 3 suggesting what Gareth Southgate would say and asking why Starmer isn't saying it, it's getting beyond ridiculous now.
Absolutely barking! They can't hear themselves, can they? Just ranting.
I replied to one pointing out every reply to his post had a different suggestion to what Starmer should have said, how they can't see the problem with this nonsense is really beyond me.
Switched on to rant mode I think. All commonsense gone.
🤷♀️
Ian Dunt seems to have gone off the deep end recently. Is he just chasing clicks now?
Don't bother with his stuff anti more. Lost the plot really. Used to be so good.
Must be, I've unfollowed him now, he didn't show any signs of hating Starmer during the GE campaign and I just don't buy it's because Starmer is doing a bad job because I don't think he is.
Same here. As I predicted this morning the idiots who spent all last week insisting he agreed with Farage in every aspect are now desperately trying to spin his words. It’s like the FBPE crowd who won’t accept we can’t “just join” and want to put the Tories back as punishment for that.
They're very often the same people.
He was excellent and Cooper was outstanding in HoC .. on we go..
I don't know. It's a pity because I like a lot of his stuff.
Same here.
To these planks saying not the man for the moment, your so in the know, so who is the person for the moment and don't say anyone but Starmer.
It’s all so tiresome . It seems that many on the hard left, so despise Starmer that they can’t wait to get Farage in No 10 .
Don't get me started on the flag issues They've vandalised a couple of crossings here with crudely painted St George's flag symbols Its totally out of proportion
We've never been a nation of flag wavers, Farage has a lot to ansser for.
I’d have happily waved one at the women’s football this summer. It’s all in the context.
I was mentally waving flags for the women's The Hundred cricket...
They are pathetic.. I've noted its mostly men fluffing up their feathers, they all think they can do better...whinging and whining away.
Most of them haven't even served as a Parish Councillor but they know best.
Some people will always twist what's been said to fit their own anti-Starmer agenda. It's infuriating.
They can't hear how ridiculous they sound when they're switched on to rant mode.
Yes Claire, didn’t you know, that’s how being PM works now….🙄
Flipping heck, he's going to need more hours in a day.
😂
