  • LOL, really? I mean, if a few hundred left shitposters on Twitter calling him Keith is going to undermine Labour's election prospects rather than, say, a leadership coup or pushing the party into a disastrous second referendum position, then perhaps he's not the strong and stable leader we need.

    He's going to come under a shitload more scrutiny in the run up to an election due to issues largely of his (and his faction's) own making; a few people giggling about how apposite the moniker Keith is will be the least of his worries. And frankly, it is funny. It's funny that he really is a Keith and it's funny that such a tiny, trivial matter causes people to absolutely lose their shit over it.

    FWIW, I started out as a supporter of his because I naively believed he would do what he said he would do. Not my fault he chose a different direction. I still reckon he'd be better than the Tories, though, but by his own admission on LBC the other day, only fucking just.

  • He's going to come under a shitload more scrutiny in the run up to an election due to issues largely of his (and his faction's) own making

    Surely he will come under scrutiny because

    1 - there will be an election in the offing, People will then have some engagement with politics.
    2 - the Tory press will go after him because there's an election in the offing.

    Nothing to do with any issues of his own making, real or imagined.

  • Well, yes. And the scrutiny is highly unlikely (read: almost certainly not) going to focus on people on Twitter calling him Keith, is it?

    It's going to be focusing on the things he has or hasn't done. Real.
