He seems to have taken charge of the situation he’s in. I’m impressed so far let’s hope he actually delivers time will tell. After All the lies and mis directions he’s answered a lot for his first press conference which is more then the last government did in 10 years

All frogs of the same pond. And that pond is filthy. If anybody thinks this frog is gonna stay clean, you try jumping into a filthy pond and see how you come out.

Only came here because I need to get some sleep.

Nothing, but nothing, could be worse than the last 14 years of greed, poor management, crocked deals and lies we have lived through. I hope some of the dodgy deals and goverment contracts for mates leads to convictions.

Words, words and more words. Action is what we need to see. Off to the States for a summit, first of many freebies. Change my arse.

I'm 60 this year, in a stressful job, living with critical health issues. Why should I have to keep working until I retire at 67, why not reduce the pension age, it's not bloody fair, when previous generations have been able to retire at 60-65. I want Labour to look at this.

Starmer keeps harking on about 'change' and a "changed Labour party" but I'm sure it will just be more of the same.

Safe to say he will be allowed to finish the dismantling of Great Britain from the safe distance of his mansion.

At least the press are so happy now. His fan club

[rig-eo]

Here we go again let's make plans that turn into nothing. Smoke and mirrors comes to mind.

[dazzaboy]

Is he the first ever PM to actually answer a question?

When the woman says 80% of the people didn’t vote for you…… says it all….

[MrHs]

You’ve got 36% of the vote, you hardly have to support of half the nation

[keithdrury]

The Equality Act needs revising, many of us in work with disabilities are treated like perpetrators when we ask for support. I've worked in three local authorities where I was bullied (ignored by colleagues and management), intimidated and made to feel like a nuisance. I've also heard stories and testimonies from other employees with disabilities with similar experiences. I hope Labour look at this and decide to revise how this Act is enacted in practice. I also think those who do not protect and support with disabilities in the workplace should be brought to account.

Keep your focus on the UK and keep your countries long identity. Do not be swayed by people that have entered your country, to change your country, into the country they left. Stand proud and fly your flag proudly 🇬🇧.

[topcat]

The new labour cabinet is like the cast of the muppets show….I’m off to live in Spain

[bankmanager]

Finally the adults are back in charge.

[robinjones]

He definitely born to pm… politics are boring again.

[egriffiths]

Why are we counting those people who couldn’t be bothered to vote in the totals? Their zeroed their claim to be included by not turning up.
