  1. Christ give the man a break, Freudian slips happen.

    How many times has Jeremy Hunt been called cunt?

  2. It’s a blunder, we all make them. I am naturally a Labour voter, so I should feel sorry for him… but I don’t, sod him. Absolute weasel.

  3. Oh no what a massive idiotic blunder, how can we ever trust his judgement again…

    Seriously. on a scale of 1 to calling your teacher “mum” on the “embarrassing blunder” scale this is about a 3.

    Nice slip, Keir…. Return of the hostages. Is that all? How about return of the lands stolen? How about stop trying to blame it all on a terrorist group that came about long after Israel started invading and stealing land, and murdering countless people. Israel are committing GENOCIDE, is that why you banned that word from the conference?

    You might bury your head in the sand, Starmer, but being a genocide supporter will stay with you for life.

  5. Honestly it’s getting silly. I would invite everyone to go read some Israeli news websites and use auto translate. 

    They make no mistake about it, the obstacle to a deal, a deal which was on the table 300 days ago and has only gotten sweeter since: is Netanyahu and his career. Hamas, the US and the IDF are all in favour of them. Haaretz is *very* vocal about how he’s sabotaged every deal. 

    Starmer pusstfooting about this makes him look weak. Deals have been on the table for 300+ days and he has serious leverage about the main obstacle to getting hostages back alive, and stopping the relentless slaughter of innocents in Lebanon, gaza and the west bank. 

  6. I’ve seen a bacon sandwich take down a labour leader. If a sausage sandwich will do it this time!!! I’m buying.

  7. Hardly embarrassing – was pretty funny if anything – first time I’ve heard him say something funny, even accidentally

    He said we won’t be rejoining the Pringle Market, so returning the sausages is the only way we can make Breakfast a success.

  9. It was pretty funny, easy Freudian slip to make. Far less batshit crazy than Truss’ ‘pork markets’ or Boris’ ‘peppa pig world’ jibes in previous years.

  10. He’s just reading the teleprompter, not really thinking about what he’s saying or showing any passion for it. Which is exactly what it feels like he’s done since he became PM.

  11. He makes a slip it’s news. News for the same people to complain about who elected a bumbling fuckwit who’s entire grift was not being able to work a comb and sounding posh.

  12. You know, that’s embarrassing but I’m happy that we still live in a country where the leader of it doing something like this is still embarrassing or even, noteworthy.

    And it’s actually reported by the media.

    Could be worse. Could be a country where the leader doing [something](https://www.business-standard.com/amp/external-affairs-defence-security/news/us-president-biden-fumbles-again-while-introducing-pm-modi-at-quad-event-124092200595_1.html) 5x more stupid/embarrassing/potentially international relationship damaging is such a common occurrence it’s not even reported by main stream media anymore.

  13. Do you know how intimidated you would be if you were pm?

    I’d make slip ups like that every 5 seconds

    If we’re going down the path of the USA where we get crazy about a slip of the tongue, we’re screwed.

    I don’t care which politician does it, we have to set the damn bar higher than regular human slip ups. The media *love* them but we all literally do it and it’s going to push actually important stuff out of the way.

    Jeez I despair at how we have sunk.

  15. Was it a PR mastermind? I’ve just scrolled through X and heard ‘cease fire in Gaza’ more times than I’ve ever heard.

  16. Starmer… Oh dear. All this talk about your bungs and corrupt gifts and you take this moment to try and get a lifetime supply from Walls?

  17. So we live with Borris not being able to string a coherent sentence together… Then Truss who either sounded certifiable or like she was having a stroke (with very little middle ground)

    .. and then Starmer slips one word and that is worthy of an embarrassing blunder news story..Fuck me.

  18. Confirmed: Israel has stolen our sausages. Grab your torches and pitchforks, we’re going to get em back!

    I’m mean he’s a complete hack but does anyone really care about this? He makes a mistake so what. It was pretty funny to be fair. He should’ve played it off would’ve made him seem more human or even relatable.

    Interesting fella. He’s not leftist but somehow made it to the top of the party. And he is killing the mood with a huge loser act. Corbyn must start his own party ASAP. I’m so sorry for young fellas’hopes from those losers.
