Corbyn is a better man than Starmer, and Starmer a lesser man than Blair
Winston Churchill once famously opined on his Labour Party rival after losing the 1945 general election that “An empty taxi-cab pulled up outside Downing Street and out of it stepped Clem Attlee.”
Today, in our time, out of that empty taxi-cab will step current Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer if he wins the next general election. Indeed this is a man so wooden that one wonders if instead of putting his suit on in the morning, his suit puts him on. Opportunism was a word invented with him in mind, while as for principles, those he carrries around in his pocket like loose change, along with his integrity.
Over this past week he and his have spared no opportunity to kick around Jeremy Corbyn like a dog in the street, proclaiming that at the next general election the MP of Islington and Starmer’s predecessor as leader of the party will not be allowed to stand for re-election as the Labour candidate in a constituency he’s represented continuously since the early 1980s.
