Always framed as nasty Keir hates something nice.

Is Sadiq funding the extra kitchens? I recall the reaction to Clegg doing a limited version of this was less than ecstatic in some quarters. That may be why Starmer is less than pleased.

Of course that hasn't stopped people with running with Sir Kid Starver.

I've written a sketch where he hands out leaflets asking if anyone has seen his principles, or his poll lead, or his charisma, or his peas - oops, that was from an old routine about John Majors.

Prepare for OUTRAGE.

Some poor comms again,
