  • It's not actually this, literally

    a few hundred left shitposters on Twitter calling him Keith

    It's the attitude that stinks. What does this even mean?

    It's funny that he really is a Keith

    He's not and never has been called Keith. There's some weird left wing birther-style conspiracy that he was actually called Keith and had it changed when he was young but he didn't.

    I share your disappointment that he's not better than he is. FWIW I think there are a few people within Labour who would make better leaders. But the calling him Keith thing is just childish.

    Well, that's news to me. Maybe there are eight people out there think that, but the left tweeters I follow all say it comes from the autocorrect.

    I agree it's childish, but it's hardly likely to derail his electoral prospects, is it? Does any undecided voter out there think: "Well, I was considering voting Labour, but some people on Twitter call the leader 'Keith', so perhaps I won't bother?"

    The bacon sandwich thing seems to have done in for Ed Miliband, so yes, voters are swayed by stupid shit in the media.
