Strictly speaking it could actually be heterophobic too, I suppose? |  |

Are you suggesting it is good that he is allowed to call a bi election because he cant be bothered to see out his term. A bit like what that clown Farage did. They are all scum bags and you lot dance like marionettes to whatever tune they play. You must learn to stand up for what you believe in. |  | |  |

Farage didn't resign because he couldn't be bothered to see out his term. He resigned because he wanted a by-election as a popularity contest. |  |

Just because it's Keir Starmer, and you don't like him, shouldn't change that. If anything, you should be delighted that he has gone. When he stood at the last General Election he was the Leader of the Labour Party. He had every intention of representing the constituency for the full term. Something very big has changed since then. He is allowed to take a different direction as a result. |  | |  |

Wait, Farage called a by-election because he didn't want to see out his term? Must have missed that when he got re-elected. Also quite funny you think everyone else to be the puppets when you're the one parroting nonsense. The only people served by simplistic nonsense that all politicians are corrupt, is populists and the actually corrupt. |  | |  |

Stop being so pedantic you loser. We all know why he did it. Try and enjoy life instead of being a complete low life and picking at text. Try and smile. Kiss your loved ones and stop carrying anger. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Nether met the guy and have no axe to grind against him at all. But he should see old he term regardless. Its a money thing for me. |  | |  |

Not especially. Just dont like they way people behave when talking. People united are so powerful, but when divided they are weak. |  | |  |
| Starmer quitting as an MP now he has his PM pension on 19:25 - Sep 1 with 3002 views | Oldsmoker | Starmer was a bloomin' good Lawyer before he became an MP. He was the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) and head of the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS). I would argue he was a much better lawyer than a politician and from your OP you don't think much of him as an MP either. Not much use as a back bench MP. Best do what you're good at. |  |

| Starmer quitting as an MP now he has his PM pension on 19:31 - Sep 1 with 2942 views | redrickstuhaart | Absurd comment. Been doing it 11 years, including the toughest and most pressured job in the land. Has been pushed into stepping down from that job and quite understandably has decided he wants to call it a day as an mp. Hardly a cynical move. |  |

Yes - it looks like he was correct. 11 years, with a far lower income than he would have had as a QC. Only stopping, quite reasonably, having left the top job. |  |

Very much OTT language but it's disappointing that Starmer isn't seeing out his term as a member of Parliament. We are only a couple of years away from a General Election. Rishi Sunak and Theresa May both stayed on as MP's after losing the job as PM, and in fact stood again at the following election. Cameron and Johnson legged it as soon as possible. I'd have thought Starner had a sense of public duty similar to the former pair rather than the latter. [Post edited 1 Sep 19:50]

Don't disagree with that, and I'm no Starmer fan fwiw, but a bit of perspective wouldn't hurt re the op. |  |

Quite. It's almost as if the whole thing was a gigantic fraud inflicted on the British people at the worst possible time! |  | |  |
