- Exchanged details with the cyclist

- Spoke to British Transport Police officer

- Waited until paramedics arrived

- Reported incident to the police "as soon as reasonably practical"

The desperation to turn this non-story into a giant scandal is pathetic. And so so revealing. https://twitter.com/magmogz135/status/1321229423492898816
And what's pathetic and revealing about it is very simple. Exactly the same people who spent 4 years insisting on "respecting the leader's democratic mandate" are frantically doing the exact opposite now. They're giant, appalling hypocrites.
OOOH AN ACCIDENT HOW CAN WE TURN THIS INTO A SCANDAL ABOUT 'KEITH'

Exactly the same people who spent 4 years righteously furious when Jeremy Corbyn was referred to as 'Magic Grandpa', Giant, appalling hypocrites, again.
Those people should ask themselves: why did the left fail so totally at the leadership election? Why was Starmer elected convincingly? Why, completely unlike Corbyn, are Starmer's approval ratings miles and miles ahead of Johnson's? Why is Labour ahead in the latest polls?
But you know what my favourite bit of mindblowing hypocrisy is in their attitude to Starmer? It's the revolting contempt they have for someone born working class who rose through his own hard work and talents.

WHAT a message that sends out to those who don't trust us.
Don't forget too, he's a 'middle class London liberal'. Wholly unlike the, er, middle class London liberal whose backside they all think the sun shines out of.

And don't forget too: evil lawyer 'Keith' has nothing on the glorious Rebecca Long-Bailey... a corporate lawyer.
It's really very simple. I supported the last Labour leader and I support this Labour leader. The contempt so many of those who railed against the treatment of the former (quite right too) now display for democracy at party or national level is absolutely breathtaking.
I hope and trust the cyclist is well, which is far and away the most important thing here.

But the blockheads and saboteurs and bullshitters do my head in. As they should do the head in of anyone who wants a Labour government before hell freezes over.
And another thing.

Despite Britain and its various traditions being, y'know, quite popular among most British people (and especially, working class voters who we need), Starmer's critics are OUTRAGED that he's a 'Sir'.

'Establishment lackey'. Who does he think he is?
I keep waiting for these same people to renounce the homages they regularly pay to... Clement Attlee. Also a 'Sir', And a peer as well!

Meanwhile, Marcus Rashford accepting his recent honour is CLEARLY a sign he's an establishment lickspittle too. Oh yes he is. 🙄🙄
People across the country are just lining up to decry Rashford's acceptance of this bauble. All his credibility as a working class hero has been shot to pieces. Obviously.

I, for one, am affronted and nauseated by these people being honoured. Who do they think they are?

🙄🙄🙄
- Outrage at working class heroes doing good for others.

- Outrage at people rising from the working class through hard work and talent.

- Outrage at the existence of the Royal Family, a still very popular British institution

- Outrage at democratic outcomes too.
'Democratic socialist'? You're having a laugh. You know what it actually is?

"It's only socialism if we say it is and we'd rather the entire planet go up in flames if we don't get exactly what we demand at all times".
The people I'm referring to would almost certainly be voting third party or not voting at all (and encouraging as many as possible to do likewise) if they lived in the US too.

THAT's how little they actually care about others. The proud celebration of achieving nothing...
... And of doing their damndest to ensure that everyone else suffers even more than they already have.
