Welcome back to Labour’s Weekly Lunacies, the column where we spotlight the latest eyebrow-raising, jaw-dropping, and downright puzzling moves from Labour’s leadership this week.
It’s been another wild ride, folks, and if you thought last week was bad, wait until you see what Keir Starmer and his comrades have been up to this time.
This week’s whirlwind of Labour’s lunacies began with “Two-Tier Keir” exposed yet again, as Starmer conveniently overlooked Labour MP Dawn Butler’s incendiary posts while preaching about justice. Tuesday brought another betrayal: students reeling from Starmer’s U-turn on his tuition fee promise, proving his “freshers’ friend” image was just a mirage.
By Wednesday, Starmer was either clueless or playing loose with the facts, claiming in PMQs that most farmers would be spared from the inheritance tax changes. Industry experts swiftly debunked his maths, leaving him red-faced. Thursday was an economic disaster as Labour’s anti-business rhetoric drove £2.7 billion out of UK equity funds. Investors, it seems, are fleeing faster than Starmer can backtrack on a promise.
Friday shifted the spotlight to the countryside, where Labour’s farm tax plans threaten to hand the British landscape over to corporate giants, ousting yet more family farms. And just when you thought it couldn’t get worse, the weekend capped it off: A scheme to gift council staff extra time off while private sector workers slog away to foot the bill. It’s Labour’s latest love letter to the unions, paid for with your hard-earned cash.
