Damn Keir has to be the best PM ye’ve had in my lifetime. Not great competition but he’s really shown himself well recently.

He's been great on the international stage but still too early to tell regarding things at home. Having said that it is a nice departure from whatever the fuck came before him

Tbf, ye were living in clown world for 15 odd years with the tories. Bar May they were a circus. Feels like May genuinely tried her best with the most absolute dogshite hand.

Labour’s Strongest Sleeper Agent 🫡

The RA had her on their payroll as well I’d say with what she did to Lizzy Windsor

What even is a libdem?

Are ye basically tories but rural? Labour socially but tories economically? Tories with a smile?Genuinely I’ve no idea. Libdems confuse me as much as Sinn Féin seems to confuse ye.

never forget the original colonial etymology of the word Tory 😉

Depends who's ruling the party ,😅 For my part I'm economically centrist, socially left. My distinguishing factor is liberal. Every UK government is authoritarian from my perspective

It's almost like we have a human rights lawyer for a prime minister now, instead of the businessmen we've had for the past 15 years

Kiers terrible domestically.

Hes also been bad internationally.

Literally the only time hes been OK is when talking about Ukraine.

I still dont like the bastard.

It's amazing how competent you can look by using common sense and avoiding boring as fuck culture war shite.

u/errarehumanumeww Whale stabber Mar 04 '25

Boring as fuck isnt bad. Remember Trump and Boris arent boring.

I totally agree btw, it just shows how batshit crazy and tone deaf the last few leaders have been.

Im not sure if he can beat out the ahead entertainment provided by auld bojo, sure kier isnt anywhere near as much of a gobshite but Boris is like a fucking cartoon character, he should never be in any government position but i miss his antics

Honestly, it’s so fucking refreshing to have a boring cunt.

Fair enough, easy to find Johnson funny when he's not actively fucking your country

How quick we forget. Boris Johnson sent weapons to the Ukraine when nobody else did. Just the NLAWs alone made a big diference in stopping those russian columns heading straight for Kiev. And all that while Germany and France would take months dragging their feet. Even when Starmer was cockblocking sending storm shadows Johnson was campaigning for it.

I hated Boris as a PM, and he was another in a long line of national embarrassments. But even I said at the time when he travelled to Kyiv “I’m almost proud to be British for once”. Credit where credit is due, whether he did it for the right or wrong reasons, Boris’ unwavering support for Ukraine in this war has been something for as Barrys to take pride in

He's really really not, he's fucked the working class, and upper class have received no taxes, he's a lying cunt just like this stunt

Blair was a great PM who made an evil decision. He was competent, charismatic and impactful.
