This sucks man

Labour is dead, starmer killed it

Starmer believes being a socialist is something you should make a grovelling apology for. Worse than useless.

He's making the compromises you make as a leftist to rise in politics under the neoliberal order. I admire Corbyn & Sanders all the more that they never made these deals for themselves.

Boris said Fuck Business, so why apologise? Oh wait it's only Labour that does wrong things.

MPs comments on business coming back to haunt them: fuckbusiness borisfuckseverything

The Labour Party

Love media. Johnson’s “F business” to get Brexit at any cost but low-level shadow MP has to apologize for saying once saw business as enemy. Can imagine PM going on uzi rampage in puppy farm but it would be a Labour MP reprimanded for not walking his dog twice a day last week.

alexsobel

Completely gratuitous reference to Corbyn at the end.

The Labour Party in 2021

England, like the United states has 2 right wing parties.

Hi. Ashley here. Spokesman for CBI and the Federation of Small Business. We accept Labour’s apology for this incident and would like to inform them that we are sticking to recommending our members vote Tory, because why would we do anything else.

Sounds about right it's labour

I wonder if he felt the same about his synagogue sidekicks who own Goldman Sachs?

This'll get 'em votes.

Sounds like he’s 100% bitch made then.

Big business part of the solution? It's not even part of their business they've given that pleasure to you. 'Your' carbon footprint.

LMAO

Starmer was once a Trotskyist so he had a similar view. Why does Starmer think someone should apologise to him for having a view he had himself? Even Brown's didn't get up to this sort of control-freakery

cuck

lol

SeanRMoorhead This sucks man. What even is the labour party at this point?

Did he apologize for saying that he once had this view (as the wording of this headline implies) or for thinking it in the past (as I suspect is your actual meaning)?

Just save time and vote Tory honestly, there's no difference between them anymore

Absolute cuck shit

Absolute fucking wet fart of a party we’ve got now

Did a gin-scented tear roll down his face as he realised that it was all right, everything was all right, he'd won the victory over himself?

We go live to Labour HQ

fucken melt

But it is the enemy. Business literally steals our lives off us.

Another useless waste of space in the Parliamentary Labour Party

Ffs is this a serious article. A Labour MP feels the need to apologise for once suggesting that he regarded business as the enemy, but the Tory Prime Minister hasn’t apologised for saying “fuck” business. Who writes this shit?

Good on him.We all learn things as we potter through life.

Coward

Absolutely no consistency in politics is there. Bread must be buttered.

From reading the article it just sounds like he had a moment of honest self reflection. Refreshing.

So when will BorisJohnson apologise for saying F**k business?

labour MP apologises for once having been a socialist...

Meanwhile in other news.... 21st September SAGE recommends lockdown and Johnson ignored the scientists. 16th December. I think he wants to cancel Christmas. I think that's what he's driving at. Johnson to Starmer

what a plum

Massive tax dodging multinationals are the enemy.

Business means opportunity

Then he is an idiot and is in the wrong party (or maybe he is in the right party now?) Business is the enemy of Organized Labour.

On the other hand, who was it who said 'f*ck business*, and seems to have meant it? 🤔

Does anyone know what he's apologizing for exactly?

He still believes it..

haha Hi alexsobel is it worth it? To be so publicly thrown under the bus by a bland incompetent middle manager to deflect from the fact that he is pretty shite at leadership?

you couldn't make it up

I never thought of meeting a legit bitcoin trader after been scammed many times at my age but the heavens sent DennisWilliam56 who guided me and help me make a living through bitcoin with my LUNO app , I recommend you to meet him now and also be a beneficiary of good work
