Germany and France are speaking for the whole of the EU(26 countries I think from memory) nearly 500m people, a major player in trade and services. The UK has 67m and stand alone on trade and services. Starmer played a blinder.

I thought Starmer played a blinder, he has to sit on the fence at the moment. He left it open to move more towards the EU if things change, remember Brexit cast us adrift we have isolated ourselves.

brahim diaz. funny.

Yes. Keir Starmer played a blinder and secured major money to boost the UK economy for several years to come. Just saying.

On the other hand we could be celebrating the fact that Keir Starmer has played a blinder and secured major money to boost the UK economy for several years to come? Just saying.

I feel sorry for #KeirStarmer one can make compelling argument. #Starmer played a blinder with #Trump at #Chequers & is getting benefit for UK. However everyone who gets politically close to Trump gets destroyed. All AI investment is private sector, what's he got on #Ukraine, #GAZA or tariffs. #wato

Sure but why aren't we celebrating the fact that Starmer has played a blinder and secured major money to boost the UK economy for several years to come?

Couldn't agree more. Why aren't we celebrating that Starmer has played a blinder and secured major money to boost the UK economy for several years to come?

‘…Keir had played a blinder during his meeting with President Trump in Scotland …Starmer has proved himself to be one of the best wranglers of The Donald on the world stage. Knowing when to keep his mouth shut and let Agent Orange just ramble’ The extract you won’t hear on #r4today

The #UK and #EU have got a big opportunity to attract scientists, high net worth #Democrats and foreign students. The future leaders of science and high tech industry. #Starmer has played a blinder with #Trump and deserves a lot of credit. His deal is tiny but great strategy, we can get more.

Starmer may have played a blinder here. If the now annual UK-EU summit happens around this time every year then it will land right before next election. What better way to remind the public about what Farage did to this country - right before an election.

A lot of people on the left won't give Starmer any credit. But it is surely ok to say the government appears to have played a blinder today, isn't it?

I will be honest: I think Keir Starmer & the EU seem to have played a blinder together. It's not everything of course, & not perfect but it is a _lot_ more than I expected or hoped for, and lays the foundations for future agreements that will potentially bring us closer and closer. YMMV of course.

Starmer has played a blinder. By allowing Mandelson to cosy up to Trump (effective but a bit grim to watch) and by allowing Trump to crow about a deal to save face just as he goes overseas, Starmer & team have managed to save important & valuable British jobs. That was the aim.

Starmer has played a blinder here. Badenoch is apoplectic and Davey is miffed. “We have not chosen the US over the EU.” - talks with them will follow next week. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cn...

Strangely the British business and economic community seems to think Starmer has played a blinder....I'm in agreement.

Starmer has, as we say in the UK, played a blinder. 👏👏👍

I know it's trendy to attack everything Keir Starmer does, but he has played a blinder this last week.

I'm a Green Party member, voted Green in the last two generals and was planning to vote Green in May. But Starmer (and whoever did the King stuff for him) has played an absolute blinder, so now I'm voting Labour.

Keir Starmer has played a blinder this weekend. After the shameful event at the WH there is no doubt Zelensky will have renewed hope tonight. Add to that Starmer gathered a large number of world leaders to work together on trying to find a peace deal. Real leadership from a real leader 🙂

Think I’ve become a royalist. Starmer and the King have played a blinder. So proud 🇬🇧🇺🇦

Much to criticise Starmer about in the first few months of his premiership but he’s played a blinder in the last few days. I’ve no idea if it’ll work but I’m not sure what more he could have done.

It really looks as though Starmer has played a blinder over Ukraine, Zelenskyy and Trump.

Worth listening to this for the very accurate summing up of Trump. He's definitely someone with a worrying personality disorder. Towards the end it shows that, like it or not, Starmer played an absolute blinder in the way he played to Trump's ego with the state visit.

Keir Starmer has played a blinder. Visited the US when many expected a shit-show. Smoozed Trump with a public State Visit and hard negotiating in private. US shit-show with Zelenskyy instead, so invites Zelenskyy to the UK early and adds a royal visit too. And now on to the meeting tomorrow...

Perfectly played. Starmer has played a blinder. Delicious British understatement.

in light of the most spectacular failed appeasement attempt since his hero Neville Chamberlain, Reel Politik calls for the immediate resignation of disgraced former human rights lawyer Sir Keir Starmer.

extreme yank brain from this guy who is taking it upon himself to mentions-pest critics of the incredibly misconceived 'Potato Famine' board game by going ACTUALLY IT'S A EURO GAME (it's an american game made by americans, but 'Euro' here means a rules design philosophy)

Fuck me, when I thought it couldn't get any worse.

this is the first time i've come close to understanding boomers' obsession with lionising the everyday miseries of their generation's youth

I just found out last night that the $50k enrollment bonus only pays out after 5 years of service, and reader, the laugh I let out when I read that woke the dog from across the house. These absolute fucking grapes aren't seeing a dime of that money. No way they can ride out 5 years of this job.

behold the most cursed ad I have ever been served, online

There honestly cannot be a satire cutting enough to make fun of Americans. What the fuck do you mean the highest colonial ideal you could imagine was a parking lot with McDonald's on both sides

turns out every man named Jonathan Ross is fated to end up on the same side as Russell Brand somehow

Just checking with how Starmer's crusade to ban apps that produce deep fakes is going

Keir Starmer: "I constantly remind myself that 24/7 our defence, our security & our intelligent relationship with the US matters probably more than any other relationship we've got in the world and it would not be in our national interest to weaken that in any way"

we were going to just stream the video game/outsider art 'Wrestling Empire' tonight on Top Rope Deep Dive but in an EMERGENCY STREAM we will be preceding it with a selection of anti-american wrestling clips. Please join us at 6pm GMT at twitch.tv/markedasred

nothing infuriates the average paid political commentator more than the fact that every 15 year old baby leftist doing earnestly naive posts about 'Amerikkka' at any point in the last 30 years has better analysis with a sounder grounding in the facts than they do.

"Maduro is a brutal authoritarian dictator," I wisely intone, as the corrupt demented paedophile US President violating Constitutional Law while operating a gestapo and concentration camps illegally arrests a foreign leader on charges which read like they were written on a paper placemat in crayon.
