At PMQs today, I told the Prime Minister that to stop a Reform Government we need a return to real Labour values. That means real action to tackle poverty and inequality, a Wealth Tax on the super-rich, and an ethical foreign policy that takes a strong stand against war crimes.
Well I guess you’ll be put on the naughty step and punished by dictator Starmer. He doesn’t want to listen, he’s never going to change because what we’re seeing now is his true colours and personal beliefs. This is who Starmer and his far right goons are.
Also need to stop being racist, transphobic and ablist too.
The government that just made it illegal to support a peaceful org that protests genocide has just been falling over themselves to support a disgraced comedy writer who encouraged people to violently attack trans women. This government is done.
Good to see your boss listened and took your comments fully onboard............not! Is it time to force a change in leadership as the government does not have the balls or competence to take on the big issues that affect us all.....and it ain't migration - that's lower down the list.
If you want real Labour values Richard then you should considsr joining the @greenparty.org.uk. Your govt now only seem to be concerned with pursuing policies that are approved by their corporate donors and lobbyists!
Its Labour who are on the front pages today defending a man who sends violent tweets at trans people. Its Labour who continue to use poor science to deny trans people healthcare and dignity. Its your leader who gave the "island of strangers speech". Its Labour who introduce 2 tier disabled benefit.
I admire your tenacity, but we know Labour is dead. Starmer and McSweeney killed it. It can't be revived, it's 6 foot under and has joined the choir invisible. I hope you are biding your time before leaving. Mp's need to leave Labour in great numbers. It's the only hope we have.
And he completely ignored your question with his reply
The PM isn't going to do that, so what's the next step? I don't think it's possible for you to do any good in Labour any more.
With the greatest respect, Richard, the Labour Party is cooked. All you can do is get out of the oven. You won't dislodge the capital interests that have made the party their plaything as easily as the party "shook off the fleas" who had the temerity to be left wing.
Leave them now. @richardburgon.bsky.social You would make a great MP for @zackpolanski.bsky.social as would all of the socialist group. Or join @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social and @zarahsultana.bsky.social Politics is changing - be part of the future! There is a place for socialists again now!
You need to join the Greens, Richard. Labour are just Reform lube.
I will never forgive you for that mental image! 😂
Sorry/not sorry 🤣
Which is why I left the Labour Party and joined LibDems. They /their values represent mine so much more closely now! Labour now does not listen to /do right by the people who voted for them!
Labour values, like defending incitement to violence by a has been comedy writers.
hi! labour is never going to any of that and you need to jump ship from there asap!
Starmer has lied at every opportunity and broken every promise he's ever made. At every opportunity, he has chosen cruelty, hatred and corruption. Nothing he offers now is worth supporting. He's proved conclusively that any commitment will be abandoned the moment it suits him. Labour is finished.
Clearly your boss ain’t getting it
Ok, what's the plan when they refuse, and suspend anyone who tries?
Thank you for your steadfast determination to bring proper Labour values to the fore. I am very grateful.
I want Labour to kick out the centrists but I want your party destroyed because of how toxic you are more. You saw how the conservatives collapsed because they were so hated and decided their policies would see you have success. Now you'll also collapse. As your centrist icon once said Fuckity bye.
your government has spent the entire day saying inciting violence isn’t a serious crime. it’s not possible for labour to win the next election. if ppl don’t want a reform government they need to vote green.
not possible for labour to recover. vote green. bsky.app/profile/brit...
Labour's a right-wing party under starmer. Get out while you can.
At this point, I feel like your values would be more at home with Your Party than Labour
No - your doing OK However you are not dealing with the foreign influence, Oligarchs or Right wing propaganda machines You seem oblivious to the UK now being squeezed and becoming a victim Deal with this foreign influence and it's media or we are all at risk Reform is our enemies arm in the UK
