Sounds it, but a third of not a lot ain't too bad.

Probably the same as when Corbyn was in charge. Twas ever thus.

| Not really, Corbyn was incredibly popular amongst the Labour members.

Certain Labour members - especially those of hard left - sadly for him not with many others

| Ironically, Starmer has to be more popular among Tory voters than hardcore Labour supporters, something that the Labour party itself fails to recognise.
To have any chance of gaining power, Labour need a fair slice of the electorate to change their vote from the last election.
Having said that, he's a long way off at the moment.

Wow! how did you come to that conclusion

| The great problem for Labour is the loss of those safe seats in Scotland where there is a permanent majority of left wing voters who are voting for an alternative party which, whilst left wing, is essentially also identity based.
A similar pattern is affecting them in England where the Tories are morphing into a grievance-based white identity party with flexible ideology. That leaves them with quite a strong coalition as, despite this alienating younger people and some professionals, they've retained enough of their existing base to make it work for them electorally.

The point is that it's not his popularity among the Labour faithful that matters, he has to appeal to "the other side", dont you think ?

Except not all of your statement is factually correct. Want to go back and try again?

| He is just following the Johnson practice of making things up to back his failed argument. The strange thing is why would you start a thread questioning Keir telling a lie in Parliament which he apologised for when his hero Johnson lies at nearly every single PMQ’s and so far has not corrected his falsehoods once.
I have another question who dresses Johnson because during the one minute silence he looked like his suit came from the Worzel Gummidge range.

I assume you wear suits from the Worzel Gummidge range yourself? how else would you become such an expert

| When elected officials start telling the electorate "I don't need a lecture from you" then something is very wrong. Same with Boris in the pub walking between tables - these people have lost all touch with ordinary people.
When Starmer says his wife works in the NHS you would think she was on the front - like the generals in the battle she is so far from the front line as it is possible to get.

| At least Starmer stood up to the co owner whose objection was because he thought the word opposition meant they had to disagree with everything the Government do. I believe he thought it just killed old people so why did his business need to close. He is a classic pandemic denier and his selfishness would make an actual ideal Tory voter. I wonder if Johnson would have done the same or would he just hide in a fridge.
With regards the suit that must be one of the most stupid posts even for you. I have worn suits but you only need to see how he looked to come to the conclusion regarding his clothes and I didn’t mention his hair. I remember the grief Foot had to endure from the press and not a word about Johnson.

Do you genuinely think Labour have provided robust opposition to what has been a catastrophic handling of Covid by the government - vaccine apart. I think the landlord was not in favour of lockdowns and he is not alone in that.
The central question for me is this - did lockdown save or cost more lives i.e. how many more would have died and how many more will die because of the lockdowns.
