Keir Starmer's moving speech on the death of Queen Elizabeth II 

Moving ? Have you lost your marbles ?

BBC say everything else has been pushed aside, whilst we look forward to a cold winter with God knows how many excess deaths coming, again, Tory inflicted this time.

@@junctionfilms6348 they are a sympathetic media outlet of labour what else would they say. Anyone who thinks the current uk political system works for the benefit of the people including this new left leaning media just saddens me

@@pbind4187 I think you are absolutely right unfortunately - underneath a lot of pundits and outlets, is factory and engine of bias beavering away and it comes up to the fore in times like these ! The bias is absurd as well as the massive contradictions. There is nothing in any part of government wotrh thinking of as with an value at all - the whole system needs a massive re-jigging. Now we have this charade and circus about the queen - when those of us in reality, know probably the majority could not give two hoots about the royals - and are fully aware of the role in the last 300 plus years. A labour leader gives "moving" tribute - so what ? who cares JOE ? Sounding very out of touch and just another sounding off media commentary ?

Spot on here boys. This "politics joe" garbage is just a load of toss. Pretending to stand up for the working class,when really it's just another tool of the establishment, clearly. Sad pathetic people with no mind of their own.

That's because Cancervatives quite literally have trouble with registering empathy in their minds.

So...boring then?🤔

@@cshartley101 You wanted party poppers?

@@davidwarburton-burley9967 Yes.

@@cshartley101 Grow up.

Thinking the same thing, here.

Sir Keir Starmer will make a fantastic Prime Minister and I hope that it becomes a reality sooner, rather than later. Along with Angela Rayner as his Deputy as she most definitely is a woman of the people.

@@sandramurray5879 well, one of them has brain so that’s not bad for Labour.

Think boris’s speech was great too

@Sandra murray. Yeah, a Labour leader that refuses to support unions and a foul mouthed imbecile as a deputy. I'm a person and she certainly doesn't speak for me, or anybody I know. Yes, we have a shower for a government, but the alternative is just as scary as far as I'm concerned.

You’re easily pleased 🙄😒

the true 'yes man' that he is.

@@TheCJsamson Johnson fan? You need to look up Dunning-Kruger Effect and read it aloud to a mirror for an hour.

@@ROOKTABULA 😆 Nope! Not a Johnson fan, quite the opposite in fact🤷 What was that you were saying about the Dunning-Kruger effect? 🤔 😂🤣

Absolutely 💯 % statesman like.My thoughts entirely.

That's your opinion &obviously you are entitled to it But any tribute coming from anyone in a party who would love to abolish the monarchy is dubious to me in my opinion

give over you fool. She wholly supported everything this govt did.

Do not be fooled by Starmer's facade, he is not much better than anyone in the Tory Party.

@@craigl0902 Which person, preferred by you, could have given a speech like that? Who?

@@elsab2710 I'm not saying that it was a bad speech, Starmer is just not a decent or honest man.

@@craigl0902 You haven’t answered my question. Who do prefer to do a speech like that or for that matter, lead the country?

Yeah she was really nice to her sister Margaret and Diana Princess of Wales. 🙄

*You don’t have to be a royalist* to realise a massive stone has been wrenched from the foundation of our country today…

@@piccalillipit9211 really! I think people will be worrying more about how they’re going to survive the winter. I wonder if the queen ever even saw a utility bill❗️

@@CashelOConnolly What the people are worried about does not affect the magnitude of what happened. This is a massive watershed moment in British history. A seesaw was tipped at 6.30pm yesterday. Britain lived in the old world of empire yesterday - today it lives in the new world, many won't cope, many more will hate it. But like it or not the 21st century has arrived in Britain...

@@CashelOConnolly Yawn!

Starmer is feared simply because they literally have nothing on him, no skeletons. Remember he was investigated by the police three times, cleared each time. It took the Met absolutely ages to investigate BoJo the clown. He broke the law and had no choice but to accept it and pay up.

Yeah I saw that, it was fantastic! The Tory cabinet had faces like smacked arses the entire time! 😂🤣😂

@@allip4226 Smacked Arses. Labour love that.😂😂😂

.....with hundreds of empty bedrooms.

Did you catch yesterday's debate? It was awesome, he did very well indeed

@@solidoperative Like I said, he's a very good public speaker. The rowdy children in parliament often quiet down when Starmer slows his speech down to talk about real people affected by political decisions. He's going to trip up Truss easily.

@@antonyeastham4564 annoyingly I think the Queen's passing will mean the eyes are off Truss for the time being at a time we need vigilance and for the people to see what she is.

Starmer was installed to protect the same institutions as the Tories. He will never target the people that need to be targeted.

@@TheCJsamson Well, you Cancervative fool, he's also good at not being _anything_ like Johnson, May or Thatcher so make him a success.

It's called sincerity

@@ROOKTABULA Ha! 😆 You’re all over this comment section calling me a ‘conservative’ well to quote a conservative: “If only you knew how stupid that statement was, you wouldn’t have said it” And for the record, when it comes to economic policy or addressing the most prominent issues in society Starmer ISN’T very good at “not being Johnson, May or Thatcher”

No need for condolences, mate. Millions of people here in Britain despise the royals and with good reason. All that's happened is the worlds most prolific benefit thief has died.

He hates the monarchy.

He his a pro Israel traitor an Alien!!!

@@lestrem11 He doesn't. People's views change.

@@elliotjohnson9415 Yes, when it’s politically convenient. You aren’t that stupid, surely?

And many people aren't head of state, their face not representing the country to the wider world. I'm not particularly emotional about it myself - though it is a sad day - but even I'm not so completely braindead as to not spot the distinction. If you have to ask "is it crass to...", the answer is probably yes.

@@tomgl6684 thats what I'm talking about by culty. I obviously see the difference between my neibours gran and the queen but its still very odd. People have as much a realationship with them as they do with the queen exept all of the... shall we say... coverage.

@@samgrainger1554 Yeah, and I've just explained why the Queen means more to people in this country than their neighbour's gran. Honest to God, it's not rocket science mate.

@@donmab The head of state is easily replaceable but "regular" people cannot be? Mate what the fuck are you even talking about.

@@tomgl6684 let's not throw insults compadre. If it was purely the practical loss of a part of a governence structure that was the reason for the responce then it would get an emotional responce much in line with the sudden death of the owner of Tesco or something. But this is not what we see from the media's balnket coverage in calm mornfull tone and many testomonies of sadness. There will be people who loved the queen in a sence more than just as someone prominant they agreed with and thats why I mentioned that people know her as bout as well as their neibours gran. To ask why people care in a raw emotional way is an interesing question. The blanket media coverage though is the most puzzling, theres clealry alot more going on thats alot more important, so far no media outlet has retuned to 'normal' coverage and are all keeping the same tone. I rekon they all think that the first to break will make some think they are heartless. How many extra will die this winter in the UK alone and whats being done/who is making sure that things arent being done? Thats the kind of coverage we actually need. We dont need more about the queen sad though it may be.

Bricks get quite warm if left in the sun. Should we tie Loose Truss to one of the solar panels she hates to see if she can gain any warmth?

You can see the discolouration of her hands in that picture - very white fingers and dark bruise-coloured on the backs. I don’t think that was a bruise from anything external, like a cannula.

🙁😁🤔

@@Ladynipchick2 Not sure whose post you are puzzled over. John’s post was a comment that our new PM is such a dismal dud that Maj, right after meeting her, couldn’t take the state of the nation any more and died essentially of a broken heart. (The photo of her standing with the long stick was taken on that occasion of new PM going to meet her.) My own comment was just a non medical person’s observation that her hands looked in that picture as if her circulation had broken down. That (plus the oedema in her ankles, which I didn’t mention) indicates heart failure, I think.

@@eh1702 Depends if they had trouble inserting a cannula. I had one in last year and they had to poke around to find a vein as my blood pressure had dropped. It left a massive bruise.

I think it more likely that she was determined to see the back of Boris before she went..... RIP HM the Q

They came back from WW2 and they got us the health service and union rights, we've thrown jt away without a fight.

@@kmadge9820 The last King and his Queen nagged Churchill into making health provision for injured soldiers returning home from the war when he couldn't be bothered with such things. Clem Attlee and Nye Bevan began rebuilding this country after the war; despite the US attaching many strings to the aid they gave us after Churchill foolishly told the US president that the UK was virtually bankrupt. Labour created the NHS, completely overhauled the welfare system and embarked on the most ambitious building programme this country had ever seen. Then the British public voted the Tories in, who immediately imposed austerity measures, as they always do whenever they are elected. The people who disregarded the progress that had been made when deciding who to vote for threw away the land fit for heroes ideal. The Queen mother believed that Tory governments needed strong labour opposition to keep them in check. The trouble has been in the last 40+ years (the period I have first hand memory of) is that every time labour lose an election, they spend most of the following years arguing among themselves rather than attacking the Tories. In the eighties the Tories lack of opposition even led to a "leaked" story of how worried the Queen was about their policies and the social division they were causing.

@@zacmumblethunder7466 The UK was bankrupt after the War and like Europe was bailed out by the US to hold socialism / communism at bay. Reagan steered Thatcher to smash it all up and destroy Britain as a manufacturing country. Just as the US pushed for the Ukraine War to finish off Russia and also cripple Europe. It was a different Britain under those Labour Governments, not perfect but there was such a thing as community/society until the Thatcherites and infiltrators like Blair got hold of it.

@@kmadge9820 I heard in a radio programme that Churchill rang Truman and before he was out through he told an aide of the president that we were bankrupt. The aide went into Truman and said "You won't believe what Churchill just told me". Until that point the US weren't certain just what our situation was. Churchill also knew that the US were developing their own computers and ordered that the British Colossus project be destroyed. His mother was American and he idolised the US. Eisenhower wanted to declare war on Russia as soon as victory in Europe was declared. He had no qualms about plunging the continent into another war. Thatcher didn't need much encouragement from Reagan to smash British industry. The Tories in the seventies made plans to provoke a miner's strike when they were re-elected. Strangely enough Michael Heseltine had a controlling share in a fleet of barges arranged to bring Chilean coal to Britain. It's sad that the only prime minister in my lifetime who actually promoted British manufacturing was Harold Wilson. But you are right, under the last Labour government we stopped seeing people living on the streets in my city. Almost as soon as the Tories got in, we had rough sleepers back because all the services that looked after them were cut.

@@zacmumblethunder7466 Yes. Just two things - Britain had a Lend Lease arms loan from the US and that was only paid off in recent years. The US Marshall Fund stood the completely devastated British and mainland Europe economies back on their feet post war and the US also rebuilt the Japanese economy - reason being to stop the advance of communism and socialism from Russia and China and to keep power in the hands of the rich. Churcjhill invaded revolutionary Russia after WW1 and pushed an invasion plan post WW2 but couldn't get other countries behind it. He nearly blew up Windscale, pushing scientists to develop the nuclear bomb - there is a good documentary on this on YT. I agree that Thatcher needed no pushing to put in neo liberalism in the UK. But the initiative came from the US - remember the air traffic controllers strike, how Reagan sacked all of them? Harold Wilson I saw in a poll was the most popular PM ever in UK and he believed that he was being pushed out by SA secret services - BOSS - who were surely not acting on their own initiative. It is outrageous to see the terrible poverty and homeless ness in the UK now when it is still the 6th richest country on the planet, while the rich have more money than they know what to do with. And the way the Tories are starving disabled people reminds me of the NAZ Is who killed off disabled people. Enough really is enough but it is no use asking the Tories to change, they need to be ousted.

@@paulsawtell3991 he will be.

What the trendy middle class leftists in the Labour party don't understand is that the majority of working class people (the people the party _used_ to represent) are pro-monarchist. They don't like being told by left wing activists that they are "Childish" (I've heard that from a few of them) for supporting the institution, and they certainly don't like seeing a leader like Corbyn sitting smirking while people at the Labour party conference shout "Off with their heads" and "Shoot them" when the monarchy is mentioned. "We're not the bl**dy French, you know." Not many people want to be ruled by what sounds like a blood thirsty mob. Blood thirsty mobs don't have a history of knowing when to stop.

@@paulsawtell3991 thanks for that Paul

Because parliament is literally only open for these messages. He was talking about it yesterday, more or less up until the moment she died, and he will be again just as soon as parliament lets him.

@@georgeandrews5859 But what is the useless piece of tripe going to do? Or does he have to wait for instructions from Soros and Schwab? Like voting against a raise in corporate tax. A LABOUR LEADER not voting for a raise in coporate tax. The unions will be leaving Labour in a short space of time.

​@@stevejones3868 Congrats on your far-right conspiracy theories, if Starmer's Labour is in the thrall of the mega-rich owners of the world why are they so poor, and for that matter why full stop? As for the corporation tax rise, it was a delay, as far as I'm aware, but also literally what would be the point? It was all political games at that point. Perhaps you think it would be better if Corbyn was there to not play the games and just lose? You know, I worried about the unions too, but people have been saying this for ages so maybe come up with some evidence instead of just making stuff up

​@@stevejones3868 Look I'm probably largely in agreement with you when it comes to ends, but if you don't have any means that are better than getting Labour into power, you're really just whinging while everyone else works to rescue the country on your behalf.

@@georgeandrews5859 Oh there's other means.

He wants to abolish the monarchy, keep up for Christs sake.

@@lestrem11 doesn't mean he can't sincerely respect the monarch weve had, it's the institution most republicans want rid of, not the heads off the shoulders. I'm not much of a monarchist but that doesn't mean I can't think Liz was top dollar.

He can say all the nice shit about the queen he wants. He's still a Tory pretending to care about Labour. He cares about Wall-Street. Not working class people in the UK. People like Starmer are driving working and poor people out of the party. It's disgusting.

I remember that night. I was a Tesco shelf filler at that time working the nightshift. Because it was so sudden, when we hit the canteen for our second break the mood was pretty subdued.

I am not british not a fan of monarchy but the country isn't run by the royal family and the Queen was a good diplomat.

Which member of her direct family is that then?

I mean did you really expect him to come out and slag her off when she just died? It'd be political suicide, and I think stuff like this is the kind of thing that will win over people from the other side

@@PaulStargasm work it out, mate. Its not rocket science

The monarchy has no say in politics. Parliament is elected by a democratic vote not on the whims of the monarch

@@slartibartfast3041 the queens man in Australia overthrew a democratically elected government and she's personally intervened to prevent land reform in scotland they're parasites and war criminals who should be put up against a brick wall and it's a shame the queen got to die in comfort

@@slartibartfast3041 but the media has a special relationship which leads to propaganda. fancy people giving royal assent on laws is not a country ruled by people.

@@shadykid5939 do you vote? Do you get to choose the party you wish to vote for? The party that wins the election goes to the monarchy with how it wants to rule, it’s a formality as the monarchy can’t tell them how to govern.

@@slartibartfast3041 we are a country that claims ourself as democratic yet we have non democratic institutions and regressive attitudes to a lot of things.
