Proper facepalm from the head of infectious diseases at another Trump gaff.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Kind of funny that being head of infectious diseases he touched his face against all current guidelines.

Even worse. He’s using the federal governments leverage to force contractors to cancel shipments of medical equipment to Michigan and ship it to the federal government.

he’s okay with people dying of their governor is a Democrat

I hate the guy and he’s willing to stoop this low but signing the cheque of each cheque that goes to each American household could just win him the election later this year. Not much Biden can do between now and then.

And then the Venezuelan military issued a statement accusing the cruiseliner crew of cowardly and criminal behaviour as they did not pick up and of the crew of the ship that rammed them.

And Sir Keir is confirmed as Labour Party leader.

And Sir Keir is confirmed as Labour Party leader.

Angela Rayner as deputy as well

Let the character assassination begin!

 

[Gavin]

Already has

I quite like Sir Keir and at least he is “electable”. Character assassination is unfortunately part and parcel of politics, so yes Sir Keir will have to be pretty resilient for what is to come from the right wing media.

If it had been Long-Bailey the character assassination would a hella of lot worse.

At least we might have a functioning opposition in this country again. Rather than rebel MPs

 

[Gavin]

It's very strange Jimmy Savile is trending on Twitter alongside Keir Starmer, with the headlines that Sir Keir failed to prosecute Savile.
