KernowDamo: Further negative fallout over Keir Starmer's pro Israsel positioning is looming on the horizon, but there will be no sympathy for him.
Right, so there’s nothing more cheery and gratifying than seeing Keir Starmer being trapped between a rock and a hard place but here we are, a bit of good news for a change as one of the new intake MPs from July has in no time at all, managed to pull something off that will have Starmer and his rancid Tory tribute act of a Labour Party wriggling like a worm on a hook, but there’s no getting out of this one.
Independent Alliance MP Shockat Adam, the former optician from Leicester, has presented a bill to parliament entitled the ‘Recognition of the State of Palestine Bill’. If this Bill were to pass, the UK would be obligated to immediately recognise the State of Palestine and you can imagine that Keir Starmer wouldn’t have a bar of it, his dictatorial style of leadership would demand his MPs not support such a thing and I’m sure they would duly oblige, likely followed by the Conservatives as well, but that will of course simply expose again and reinforce the now more and more widespread belief that the two main parties are completely out of step with public opinion on the matter of Israel and despite everything we continue to witness in both Gaza and Lebanon now, nothing has actually changed for our government and for so many MPs, who will continue to support Israel come what may. But the damage this is going to do to their reputations, already historically low as they are for Starmer’s Labour, will be nothing less than they deserve either.
Right, so Independent Alliance MP for Leicester South Shockat Adam, is a guy it’s probably fair to say is more well known for how much the media intentionally ignore him, than any other MP, because the Labour MP he beat at the General Election basically has a reserved seat on Good Morning Britain these days, professional loser and still whining about losing yet still held up as some bastion of being on the pulse of UK politics despite never actually having served in any government, Jonathan Ashworth. Where Adam has closely aligned with Jeremy Corbyn and other Independent MPs who also beat off Labour competition and sent other MPs packing too despite Labour’s landslide, collectively they’ve now formalised their alliance – not quite a party, but an alliance – meaning they act as a group on some issues but aren’t obliged to on everything.
Well Adam has now laid down in parliament a Private Members Bill, which is going to be an absolute headache for Keir Starmer, because where her desperately needs a boost in his approval ratings and for those of his party, especially as they continue to degrade ahead of what is expected to be a hugely damaging and harmful austerity budget in just over a weeks time, the ongoing and deeply unpopular insistent and consistent support for the genocidal apartheid state of Israel continues and continues unabated. No red lines for Starmer, he’s been put on the spot about that before, what would it take for him to stop supporting Israel, stop arming Israel, stop flying intelligence missions from Cyprus for Israel and he won’t answer.
