The "real Keir Starmer". I so agree. The way he kept that dead pan look when he called the hostages - "sausages". Truly comedy gold. He really made me happy on such a rainy day! Thank you Sir Keir.

@julianshepherd2038 He used his foot. They were armed police and therefore could not use their hands because they were holding their weapons. Think about it though, you'd have to be mad to want to attack an armed policeman.

[@user-bu9nb8wr6e]

Honestly doubling down for about 5 minutes on racist thugs was an absolute disgrace. Every person I know from young to old, black to white have said he dealt with the riots so badly by just trying to crush the people who turned up at the riots who did nothing wrong. He labelled all people at demonstrations far right. He has completely misread the mood of the nation when I think it’s about 60% of people their number one worry is immigration. I think it’s most probably about 80% of people that are worried about Starmer now.

[@musicilike69]

NO THEY WON'T.

[@wxc1235]

Bring back J.C a real Labour leader.

[@VinceLammas]

I didn't think Starmer tried to give an optimistic speech, more that he was both serious and determined. I think that just reveals how he feels about politics. Labour haven't made any new announcements at the conference ... but they have a manifesto to hold them to. His performance was confident and competent.

Did he mention how he was going TO STOP the immigration?? OK..the people who where involved in riots should have protested differently .But Starmer is forgetting all the people who are going to marches and protesting in peaceful marches ...Not everyone who has a different opinion to the left is extreme far right ...We can see what is happening to our once Great Britain...But all them rent a mob at the conference today who were giving Starmer a standing ovation need to get a grip and grow a backbone.
