@LucyMPowell @Keir_Starmer A leader who goes AWOL to evade scrutiny, responsibility and accountability, and then feigns surprise - shock horror ? - at a “leaked” report.

@LucyMPowell @Keir_Starmer Unfortunately it's clear the priority of the current Labour leadership isn't to beat the Tories, but to destroy the left. It's so depressing, and it abandons those of us who desperately needed (and continue to need) that socialist Labour Govt.

@LucyMPowell #Starmer can say anything he likes and frankly, he knows as much as the rest of us - which isn’t much. The PM is dammed if he does and dammed if he doesn’t. Lockdown versus economy is a delicate balancing act. Anyone in charge would be totally challenged.
