Weller on Kier Starmer. #Starmer

Why are so many of the “be nice” brigade so breathtakingly horrible?

THE DOSSIER #19: Emily Thornberry – The Sneer of Islington Born Guildford 1960. Your father abandoned you at seven. Council estate poverty. Then the University of Kent. Gray's Inn. The barrister's escape route. You learned the law. You never learned humility. Fabian Society member. Keynote speaker at their conferences in 2019, 2024, 2025. The same society that has shaped Labour's gradualist betrayal of the working class for over a century. Labour Campaign for Human Rights patron. Chatham House speaker. Vice Chair of the APPG on Sexual and Reproductive Health. National Security Strategy Committee. Liaison Committee. All the right credentials. All the wrong people. Barrister at Tooks Chambers. Human rights law. Michael Mansfield's protege. You took the pay cut to become MP for Islington South and Finsbury in 2005. You have represented that constituency for twenty years. It remains one of London's most deprived. Your property portfolio is worth £4.6 million. You campaigned for social housing. You introduced the Housing Association Bill to "empower tenants." Then you purchased a housing association property at auction. £572,000. A Georgian townhouse in Clerkenwell. You rented it to private tenants. Reportedly to your own parliamentary researcher. You sold it for profit. "Labour's queen of hypocrisy." You earned the title. The White Van Man. November 2014. Rochester and Strood by-election. You photographed a house. Three England flags in the windows. A white Ford Transit on the drive. You tweeted it. No words needed. Your sneer was the caption. Dan Ware. A cage fighter. He had "not got a clue" who you were. He called you a "snob." Ed Miliband was "furious." You resigned as Shadow Attorney General within hours. You claimed you had "never seen anything like it." Working-class patriotism. Unfamiliar territory. You altered an Electoral Commission press release in 2006. Inserted your own quote. Made it appear official. The Standards Commissioner found your actions "unwise and unfortunate." You faced no sanction. You never do. Caroline Flint called you out in 2019. Alleged you called Brexit voters "stupid." You threatened defamation proceedings. Gave her hours to retract. Instructed solicitors. Talked tough to Sky News: "They can't make up shit about me." Then you abandoned the case. Empty threats. Your trademark. You married Sir Christopher Nugee. Lord Justice of Appeal. Boris Johnson called you "Lady Nugee" in Parliament. The Speaker intervened. Called it "sexist." You reject the title publicly. You prefer the pretence of ordinariness. While living on Richmond Crescent. Same street as Tony Blair. Same day you both moved in. Your four-storey Victorian townhouse. £2.9 million. Plus the Guildford flat. Rental income over £10,000 a year. Working-class credentials. Pure theatre. You wanted to be Labour leader in 2020. You considered it. You did not stand. You knew. You served Corbyn. You serve Starmer. You expected to be Attorney General. The real one. Not shadow. Starmer appointed Richard Hermer instead. You were "shocked and disappointed." The snub was public. The message was clear. Even your own party doubts you. Now you chair the Foreign Affairs Select Committee. Leading the "Scandelson" inquiry into Mandelson. Aggressive oversight. The irony is geological. You who altered official documents. You who abandoned legal threats when challenged. You now sit in judgment. They made you Dame Commander in 2025. DBE. For political service. The honour sits on your shoulders like a shroud. The working-class girl from the council estate who sneered at the England flag. Who profited from housing association property while preaching socialism. Who threatens lawsuits then runs. Who lives in £2.9 million splendour while her constituents queue for food banks. You are not a champion of the people. You are a cautionary tale. The champagne socialist who forgot which glass was hers. Your White Van Man tweet defines you. Your housing hypocrisy buries you. Your Damehood is mockery. You have no credibility. No authenticity. No political future worth speaking of. You gambled that class betrayal could be dressed in progressive language. You lost. Your reputation is ash. Your conscience is a void. Your Damehood is groresque. Your career is a study in elite condescension. Your betrayal of Britain is now complete. Permanent exile from public trust awaits. Congratulations. You are The Dossier.

@andyburnham Zoom?

Britain is about to get our 5th Tory PM in 6 years of chaos - the voters didn’t elect him and he’s responsible for the high-tax, low-growth, low wage economy that’s fuelled the cost-of-living crisis. Britain needs a general election now

Another day another labour mishap. No different to the tories and totally inept at running the government. Lost all faith in British politics

A 110-year old club with established links to the local community being forced to close their doors and cease business, to make way for a nomadic YouTube team should not sit well with anyone.

I have never taken part in a coup against any Leader of the Labour Party and I am not going to start now. 2/3

A lot of signings happening at @AFCSudbury. I hope some of the academy players get a crack this season despite this. Especially in forward areas. They have some real talent

@JimmyTheBrummie Take it easy James. ⚽️⚽️
