I’m suprised the S*n didn’t back Starmer earlier.

Will Rishi actually lose his seat?? How many Tory MPs will place big wagers that he will? And exactly where in California will Rishi move to afterwards? How many miles will that be from Harry and Meghan? Tune in tomorrow for another episode of “Parliament on the Piddle” (trust me, we yanks envy it over ‘washingon.d.c in ashes’ or ‘WTFrance!?’)

Has Murdoch’s Sun ever had respect, outside of dudes who like to see boobs along with the news?

I was profoundly tempted to do a page 3 Starmer but even I have limits.

Apparently the insider gossip is that they’ve had to be pushed into a very grudging endorsement, because Starmer was involved in the phone hacking prosecutions.

Ha! They are just trying to prove they had a hand in it. So many people are hoping that the tories will be dead meat, even Murdoch can’t ignore it. The Sun will be back to its regular tit, bum and touch yer forelock before the end of the week.

As some one from Liverpool, I dont know why any one would care what the S*n thinks.

Burn it down and burry the ashes to history.

Oh no - He’s pledged* to stay in Tory politics if he wins his seat. I want him on those backbenches as miserable as fuck for 4+ years.

*Pledge values can go down.

Too much to hope that they’ll be the new Minivan Party, but some small vehicle would be nice.

You’re so right!
I didn’t feel like hunting for a wrecked one, but I think this may be sufficient for their needs:
