Keir Starmer has said since October that he stands shoulder to shoulder with the Zionists, in Israel committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. Early on he supported the genocidal war crimes of the Zionist state, in cutting off food, water and energy to Gaza. He has suspended Labour MP's for even noting that the Zionists are engaged in genocide, on the very day that the ICJ ruled it had a case to answer. He engaged in the manoeuvres and bullying of Speaker Hoyle, in order to bureaucratically prevent the SNP motion being voted on, because he opposed its criticism of the Zionists acts of genocide in Gaza.
Well, now, as the Zionist state slaughters over a hundred starving Palestinians queuing for flour, in Gaza, those same Zionist allies of Starmer in Israel have taken to social media, via Telegram to welcome the slaughter undertaken by those troops, and added with glee that cannibalism would soon be taking place amongst those same Gazans!
Is it any wonder that the voters of Rochdale inflicted a crushing blow to the three main parties, and, voted in the abominable, reactionary George Galloway. As as happened so many times in history, as the main political forces all present no real solution to workers, and all instead offer them the same reactionary policies, the voters either descend into apathy, or throw their weight behind some other reactionary demagogue, who presents themselves as an enemy of the establishment. Can there be any greater condemnation of the reactionary policies of Starmer who has sunk into the gutter of jingoism, wrapping himself in the flag, adopting the policy of Brexit, and finding no Tory policy he only disagreed with because he wanted to be even more reactionary. Biden is driving workers into the hands of Trump in the same way, just as Macron has done in France, Scholz in Germany and so on.
It is time we threw out these reactionaries, and its time the trades unions stopped allowing them to get away with it, simply on the basis of a facile lesser-evilism, which Rochdale has shown does not work anyway. Even had Starmer not disowned its own right-wing candidate, its almost certain that Galloway would have won, which was an added incentive for Labour to pull out so that they would save themselves their embarrassment, and give them a fig-lead of an excuse.
