    You’ll never get a sensible answer from people who put down comments like this.

    Starmer would clearly be better than Sunak, but to say so would be a fundamental issue because their tribalism prevents them from saying anything nice about anyone other than their chosen flavour of Labour.

    I mean, he is calling him a Tory. Says everything really, can’t be a Socialist unless you agree with me on every point.

      I mean, I’ve heard that he is more of a centrist compared to his predecessor, but what I’ve been hearing about him makes it sound like he is a plant - which I refuse to believe - but I do want to know where he stands.

      I agree with you though, I don’t think I can get a clear answer here, unfortunately.

        Nothing he has done makes him sound like a plant.

        Are you referring to the delisting from last week where people were doing stupid things, get delisted and then whinging about it? Liking twitter posts that say Starmer should be removed and calling him names or walking away from crucial votes? Yeah, that’s going to get you party support. They sound like idiots who shouldn’t really be politicians.

        Making factless snide remarks about the party leader, who has had his background combed through, had people in his party read through his background and still vote for him? Sound like a Tory trying to make Labour in-fight so they are less of a challenge to the Conservatives.

          Not saying I’ve heard/seen him do anything that makes him look like a plant, I’ve heard people talking about him that way (sorry I badly worded that)

          Agree with what you wrote
