When you put it alongside the context of other racist incidents in the Labour party under Starmer's leadership then yeah, i'd say it is another line of indication.

I’ll be honest mate, I don’t really collect these stories. From what I understand, they’ve been dealt with head on. There may be a few that have just been quietly handled but I can’t recall them. That’s ignorance, not denial on my part.
He resigned from being a Conservative in 2019, not sure what the point of the post is.
Imagine that was a Jewish voter and you could hear the word y*d clearly. The outrage would be the top headline around the country for weeks, Starmer would be prostrating in front of TV cameras in forgiveness.
But now it's just a bad apple innit. Where have we heard that globally before?
There should be a commitment from Labour to have a review into systemic racism and islamaphobia in the Labour party.
There is always ways to improve and clearly there are failings at the moment
That’s disgusting. feck this party.
Something less gendered perhaps?
Jesus Christ
This is a good thing. He has experience of winning elections. You can't implement policies that help people unless you're in power. The more Tories that join Labour the better I say. Blah blah blah etc etc
Well I guess either Nick Boles' politics have drifted left, or Labour's policies have drifted right to attract a former Tory MP to work with the party. Take your pick which you choose to believe.
There is always The Monster Raving Loony Party if you prefer.
The fleas comment was made on 16th October. As in a week shy of seven months ago.
But yeah, I'm expecting too much for an overnight response or something.
You know we started this over the door cam footage?
But as you’ve added… Admittedly a very quick Google… and I’m probably missing the point, is it that bad a thing to say? Flea bites dog. Dog shakes them off?
It’s incredible poor taste to use it with regards to people resigning in protest of a policy : when that policy is messaging over a response to war. But I’ve heard that term used dozens of times across my life.
It’s callous and dumb as shit to say, but there’s no racial element to it in my eyes. I don’t think a poor turn of phrase sees you fired. It’s not like it was saying something as disgusting as Israel was shaking off the fleas by bombarding Gaza. It was talking about people free to criticise policy and resign, no?
Genuinely not supporting how Labour have handled the messaging on Gaza. They should have wanted to be right from day one, rather than move in the most politically advantageous manner. But still, it’s not some smoking gun in my eyes
Ahmed Yaqoub is standing in the GL now after his relative success in the mayoral. We need more independents like him all over.
Otherwise Monster Raving party it is.

I also suspect this apparent revelation that Starmer is mad about football and a 'dyed-in-the-wool' Gooner, is only an 'itsy-bitsy' part of the revelations we will hear about him being a 'man of the people,' once the GE starter gun has actually been fired. If they are really clever it will be the perceived enemy that finish up apparently giving him 'friendly fire'.
Hopefully the 'behind the scenes' people for Labour are now a lot smarter than in days gone by and will ensure a roll out of positive facts about the unseen face of Keir Starmer, continues steadily through the run in....Starmer's got to hope so, if he still has eyes on the massive majority.

Do we? He's going to be standing in my constituency and I very much doubt I'll vote for him. He seems to be running on a purely pro-palestine platform and doesn't have much to say about local issues.
He seems to be a grifter who's trying to capitalise on the current mood to get himself onto the gravy train. The fact Galloway is endorsing him only adds to that.
She's barely gone a week without being on TV or radio in the seven months since that Newsnight interview and if this isn't the first time it's been brought up, it's certainly the second or third and even then it was down to a guest to do it.
Unfortunately she doesn't have a conscience for it to haunt, but watching her squirm for a few seconds when she realised Ash brought receipts was a joy.
And here comes another one!
Boris Johnstone ex wife
Yeah can see really on Thronberry face that she knows she will go down in history as a pusher of genocide.
All done for a shitty cabinet position.
You must have a screw loose to marry Boris Johnson.
Or just be a loose screw.
Utter tripe as per from you. Excusing racism is a new low, Buster.
Braverman's rhetoric is utterly demented but Kier Starmer, David Lammy, and Emily Thornberry's total defence of Israel did more to get us to this catastrophic situation.
It's still good to see David Lammy ask a couple of decent questions of the government. Lammy has already condemned himself but by doing the bare minimum now hopefully he can put some pressure to stop this carnage.

Any news about who that racist 'bad apple' woman was (I know already, she's a secondary school teacher) in the MSM? I can't bring myself to clicking on any news sites.
Any comments from Starmer, or his goblins?
Nobody makes you read my posts and I certainly don't read yours.
Well would you look at that. Someone made something up and put it online. Always thought that was dodgy. If you just listen to the clip and don't look at the words overlayed onto it, it's pretty clear she isn't saying what was alleged. Poor girl.
What is she saying then? It certainly sounds like it could have been what she was accused of to me. It's not clear enough to make a distinction either way.
Always worth being suspicious when someone asks you to make up your own mind on something and then overlays it with their own transcript.

She sounds like she's saying exactly what she claims...
Guy out of shot - "Who did he vote for?"
Woman - "I couldn't understand...90" (she starts saying the number of the next house they should knock on)
Seriously turn it up and don't look at the screen.
Mate. You’ve just been given the full explanation. Yet you’re still reaching to suggest it’s more sensible that a woman out knocking doors in support of a Pakistani candidate is throwing around racial slurs.
Stop.
Honestly, the biggest crime the Tories and their media enablers have committed against this country is in the toxicity they’ve injected into everything.
Everyone in this country is whipped into a frenzy. Nothing is considered. All kindness has disappeared. A woman has been put through trauma. Aim your guns at the people that did this shit.
That subtitled track and video made me believe she’d said it. I feel bad for that. But it’s akin to the brainstorm/green needle videos among others. Our brains are not analytical in anything like the way we think they are.
Don’t shovel him to me
Awful thing to lie about and put out there, could be so damaging to the woman involved in so many ways. Disgusting.
You can see that sunak looks like he will put the pint down after the photo whereas Boris looks ready to tear into hisWhat about these two wankers. Laura?
Yeah turned it up and you're probably right actually.
