News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

do like really good like at the kind of annual hillsborough memorial he would come along and he would give a speech and he'd be really impressive i think it was even more impressive because he was an everton fan as opposed to a liverpool fan um so i think annie burnham has pretty good credentials he's kind of well liked as for whether or not he like as for whether he will differentiate himself from star more massively i think that remains to be seen i think there's a huge trend i think particularly in the uk of you know when labor get into government or any particular like labor leader in particular for example tony blair back in the 90s

they do tend to move to the centre very, very quickly, which is exactly what we saw with Keir Starmer.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry

Even though he won that general election in 2024 with a huge majority in Parliament, it didn't really seem to make a difference as to pursuing what would be thought of as traditional Labour goals.

He definitely was trying to win votes from the Tories and from reform rather than trying to safeguard the leftist votes that would have been so prevalent among the Jeremy Corbyn era.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

So it's expected.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

It was actually, you know, The Guardian have reported that Keir Starmer is expected to basically announce how he's going to step aside today.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

I've seen it reported that maybe that whole process will take about a month.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

You know, this is still not been officially confirmed, but Donald Trump actually posted about it on Truth Social last night.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

Okay.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

You know, Kier Starmer's going to resign tomorrow.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

What a loser.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

Is that what he said?

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

No, it wasn't quite that, but it was like, what he said was that Kier Starmer had failed on two major, one of which being immigration.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry

I actually can't remember what the other one was now, but I mean, either way, it was just Donald Trump being antagonistic.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

Yeah.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

But it definitely does seem to lend credence to the idea that Keir Starmer will be announcing his plans to step aside today.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

Yeah, so there's been like several controversies.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

You know, one of the major ones was, you know, appointing Peter Mandelson to be his ambassador to the US.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry
News Catch-Up: Abortion Waiting Period, Peter Thiel's Conference and Decency in Politics

And of course, later it was revealed publicly that Peter Mandelson had all these close connections to Jeffrey Epstein that you would have imagined had he been vetted properly, you know, should have come up.

Catch Up with Louise McSharry

But ultimately, what really happened was that just a lot of these concerns did come up and just were ignored.
