Prime minister tells parliamentary party that ‘being in the room’ for trade and defence talks will boost UK economy
What a shit headline. Wtf is this misleading clickbait?
I’m all for criticising Starmer on genuine missteps or clashes on policy, but pretending these trips are the equivalent of a holiday to Benidorm is ridiculous.
Keir Starmer has defended his frequent trips out of the country to Labour MPs, attempting to draw a direct link with the cost of living at home, which he warned would not be solved by isolationism.
The prime minister told the meeting of the parliamentary Labour party (PLP) on Monday night that it was essential for him to be “in the room” for international negotiations on trade and defence, which would then have an impact on the domestic economy.
He’s right on this. Isolationism will not make things cheaper. It will not make our lives better. It will not make the continent more secure.
One of the few PM things Kier actually seems genuinely very adept at is foreign relations and international diplomacy, and people want him to stop? That’s madness.

What’s the implication here, that he’s spending taxpayer money going on holiday? He’s not.
He’s a spineless bastard and the perfect lapdog for his master, but I don’t doubt for a second that he’s not working
