Indeed, a recall petition is now automatic.

It requires 10% of voters to sign it - for a by-election to be triggered.

Runcorn is just up the road from me. It's a solid Labour town so they will just vote in another Labour MP let's hope this one is not a thug as well. Labours not having a good run in the North West at the moment, what with this in Runcorn then the other class acts on WhatsApp in Stockport and the surrounding areas. So is there more to come i wonder

With any other job, your employer would dismiss you if you went to jail for assault if not before.

"I've got a good relationship with him," Sir Keir said.

"As you know, I've met him, I've spoken to him on the phone, and this relationship between our two countries is a special relationship with a long history, forged as we fought wars together, as we traded together.

"And as I say, I want it to go from strength to strength."

Anneliese Dodds resigns over Keir Starmer’s decision to cut aid budget

https://www.theguardian.com/politics...cut-aid-budget




Anneliese Dodds resigns over Keir Starmer’s decision to cut aid budget
Exclusive: International development minister warns it will be ‘impossible’ to retain funding in Gaza, Sudan and Ukraine

Anneliese Dodds: soft left intellectual pushed to resign over Starmer’s slide right

Anneliese Dodds, the international development minister, has quit her post over Keir Starmer’s decision to slash the international aid budget by almost half to pay for a generational increase in defence spending.

The senior Labour MP, who attended cabinet, warned that the UK pulling back from development would bolster Russia, which has already been aggressively increasing its presence worldwide, as well as encouraging China’s attempts to rewrite global rules.

She predicted that the prime minister would find it “impossible” to deliver on his commitment to maintain development spending in Gaza, Sudan and Ukraine with the diminished budget.

Re: Starmer’s chronicles

Yesterday Starmer said at the White House basically well done to Trump for opening up negotiations for Ukraine and Gaza but while sitting in England he was saying something different. I can't find the quotes but I'm sure Starmer said something different to yesterday anyone able to help me out. Starmers comments were after Trumps comments about Ukraine being under dictatorship and so on.

Link to the source that led you to believe he has said something different. We can't chase vague hypotheticals you may have heard and find difficult to articulate.

KEIR STARMER: And we’re focused now on bringing an enduring end to the barbaric war in Ukraine. Mr. President, I welcome your deep and personal commitment to bring peace and to stop the killing. You’ve created a moment of tremendous opportunity to reach a historic peace deal, a deal that I think would be celebrated in Ukraine and around the world. That is the prize. But we have to get it right.

How is Starmer congratulating Trump after saying different in England. If it wasn't for Trump saying stuff like dictatorship, no to land being given back, NATO membership there would be no "opportunity" to deliver a peaceful deal! Starmers had bottle in domestic affairs but internationally he's a joke.

Because he (or his advisers) know how to butter Trump up in order to get him to do what they want. It’s called international diplomacy. It’s why Trump has been offered a second state visit to the UK (this has never happened before - second-term US presidents do usually visit again, and see the monarch, but it is short of an official state visit). Also why he invited him by flourishing a wax-sealed parchment under his nose in the Oval Office. It’s theatre, designed to stroke the ego of a very thin-skinned man-baby and con him into eating his vegetables.

That's speculation. King Charles probably wants to address things with Trump, global warming is close to King Charles whereas Trump wants to drill like never before.
