> In a line that Starmer repeated a number of times at the event, he added: “They claim to be the party of patriotism. I’ll tell you this, there’s nothing patriotic about fawning over Putin.”
Anyone want to explain why they would vote for the traitors in the Reform UK party?
I mean he can’t say “gobbling Putins dick” so fawning seems close enough I guess
Fawning over? Or funding from? Or both.
You’d have to be monumentally stupid to vote Reform. Or a fascist.
This was pretty grim to read

For me, the most important thing is for Reform supporters to concede they’re traitors to the UK, putting indulgence of their ignorant xenophobia ahead of the national interest.
The next headline:
Reform UK accuses Starmer of fawning over Trump!
I dislike Starmer but I’m glad he’s said this and I think it’s important that he keeps attacking Farage and his disgusting cronies on it if we’re to avoid Reform becoming any more significant of a political force.
We need a new party for the people of the uk, not a party made up of the same old faces! With the same old agendas, it’s revolting how they treat us. Big benefit cuts then trumps tariffs will lead to mass unemployment, it’s an absolute joke.
Farage is the real life equivalent of Mr Benn. Dresses up in various clothes in a pretend life to appeal to people with the mentality and understanding of a five year old.
Kind of obvious but well done for calling it out publicly.
Hilarious coming from two tier Keir WEF muppet and his billionaire friends
I’ll remember this in 4 years time when Farage becomes our next PM.
Putin is literally bank-rolling Reform so of course they’re fawning for him.
I understand not being a fan of current politicians, and some of what they do.
But what lunatic (or idiot) thinks the solution is god damn reform uk? Because they are tough on immigrants?
News flash, its the ultra rich corporations who are really causing problems. But I doubt reform wants to anything about them except maybe sell them the NHS
im not about to vote for reform , but thats not to say Kier starmer is doing a good job
the only things they managed to fund were Ukraine and union salary demands.
Knowbodys fawning over Putin, Reform don’t agree with supporting a regime who thinks its OK to have Neo-Nazis in its regular army when we’ve got poor people back home in this country. Starmer has single handedly made Britain the number one Russia hater in the world and a very dangerous man to boot.
Worked in social housing for a bit doing rewires ect.
To qoute a particularly unpleasant gentleman:
“Fararge has got the right idea he’ll sort them filthy fucking P****s out!”
Yeah I’m not getting inline to vote with someone like that.
He also said he would work but he wanted a job that paid £35000 a year where he could start at 11 and finish at 4. (In 2015) but it’s immigrants that are stopping him getting a job.
Edit: this was a particularly bad case. 9/10 people I met in that job were genuinely nice people that wanted to do well by others. You had the odd arsehole but this one was one of the worst.
More lies from this traitor. Liebour hasn’t told the truth since they got into power.
All this sub is now is complaints about reform/Farage. No one is saying you have to vote for him but Gordon bennet people are allowed to vote for who their ideologies align with. Just because someone votes reform doesn’t make them a nazi either and there are bigger problems in the UK than Farage you guys just want a scapegoat atp
But they aren’t… I fucking hate Farage for what he did to Lowe but all of there MPs have publicly come out and said Russia is the aggressor and Ukraine needs proper guarantees… Keir Starmer is physically incapable of answering a question or labelling someone straight. He can’t answer a single question from Kemi Badenoch of all people and he can’t understand why people are supporting Reform over Liebour.
That moron is going to get reform elected unless he gets his head out of his arse and listens to some of the people in his party saying we need to make people’s lives feel substantially better NOW.
If he thinks this is going to stop reform rising he just needs to look across the Atlantic. How well did “they’re Russian plants” stop the far right
He may very well be, but what about Starmer’s allegiance?
Oh that’s right, it’s Davos.
