VILE MP Sacked, But What About Those Starmer Protected?

Right, so the news dominating headlines has been that yet another of Keir Starmer’s highest quality election candidates and now an MP has proven to be anything but as now former health minister and MP for Gorton and Denton Andrew Gwynne has had WhatsApp posts he had made which were racist, antisemitic, sexist and just plain deeply unpleasant. It is one thing to think such things, but it is quite another to be so mind bogglingly stupid as to write them down in a WhatsApp message and imagine they wouldn’t get out. Gwynne might have done well to cast his mind back to a certain investigation Starmer was forced to launch which led to the publication of the Forde Report for one, much of the evidence for that having been based on WhatsApp messages getting leaked.
Gwynne is rightfully getting panned, being sacked as a minister for what he has done does not go far enough quite honestly, he should be forced out as an MP, but what this has also done is highlight the hypocrisy in Starmer’s ranks, because where he’s given the impression of doing the right thing when it comes to Gwynne, so many others have gotten away with truly awful behaviour, so it begs the question all the more quite honestly, about what Gwynne’s real crime was and who did he really upset in which case?
Right, so the leak of WhatsApp messages to the Daily Mail written by Andrew Gwynne, disgusting as they are, has seen him rightfully removed from post. Wishing pensioners dead for not voting Labour, claiming Diane Abbott doing PMQs was down to Black History Month and when someone asked whether David Lammy was not available, or even the corpse of Bernie Grant, Gwynne replied suggesting Tory MP Desmond Swayne, or Canadian PM Justin Trudeau, both of whom have been condemned for going blackface. Gwynne also asked in the group chat whether a visiting Jewish American psychologist was Mossad, these presumably are the ones the Mail felt comfortable publishing, but you can imagine there were worse. His removal obviously is a welcome move by Keir Starmer, nobody conducting themselves like this should be in a position of power, let alone be an MP, but he was Starmer’s pick in July wasn’t he? Starmer was completely heavy handed over candidate selections and running that election campaign was the man who is now Starmer’s Chief of Staff and many suspect handler, Morgan McSweeney. Of course McSweeney will have had a say in candidate selections, the man’s wife Imogen Walker, is an MP, so is it he, who seems to be at the heart of everything in Starmer’s Labour the one Gwynne has upset, so that it actually matters?
Look at it this way, the only way we found out about any of this is because it got leaked to a rancid right wing rag, this was not the result of any number of other MPs or Labour councillors who shared that WhatsApp group with Gwynne, he wasn’t talking to himself, so they knew what he was saying, what he has been saying goes back years, Abbott did PMQs under Corbyn when he led of course, so this isn’t a new or recent group that has been created and yet none of them over however long Gwynne was making such appalling comments said anything about him through official Labour Party channels. It therefore smacks of a damage limitation exercise to leak it to the press, so that there can be no blowback on anyone else in the party, unless of course you think about it for a while and come to the conclusion that I have here, that further investigation is obviously required. Will the party move against any more MPs and Councillors in that group, because if they don’t, it’s going to look pretty dodgy. For all we know, more leaks and revelations are going to come out of this latest Labour scandal though, so we will have to wait and see, but we should be told who else was in that group and having a laugh presumably at Gwynne’s posts.
If this doesn’t happen though – and lets face it, it’s been going on long enough that obviously it has been buried up until now - it’s going to be even more damaging for Labour. It will be seen as throwing Gwynne to the wolves, having proven himself an idiot, you can imagine Team Keith don’t see him as a great loss, but others in the group may be.
That said, he’s still an MP though. That in and of itself isn’t good enough either, however to force his resignation would likely see Labour lose that seat in a subsequent by-election, something Labour will want to avoid at all costs and we know this because Starmer is desperately trying to keep Runcorn MP Mike Amesbury in place after he pleaded guilty to assault and awaits sentencing on that. The possibility of Amesbury facing a custodial sentence, which would likely trigger a recall petition, trying to averted, because of course parliament must vote through their censure for Amesbury and if Starmer whips his MPs to essentially let him off, a short suspension rather than one which passes the recall threshold, it would avoid any by election at all and a convicted thug, would remain an MP, even if he happens to be in jail.
The drawback to Starmer’s desperation to avoid by-elections he knows he will lose, is that come the general Election, everything Amesbury and everything Gwynne has said will be all over rival election leaflets. Aside from Labour being about as popular as a dose of the clap right now, that would be even more damaging and smacks of pure cowardice and also – despite the suspensions and the sacking as a minister – will not be seen as going far enough, but avoiding doing what should be done, forcing them out allowing people to select someone better, which will elicit claims that Labour don’t believe in punishing such behaviour.
Frankly, that would be true as well. A suspension from the party as both Gwynne and Amesbury have right now just means sitting as independents for a few months before being quietly readmitted to the party, they should both be expelled – how many members has Starmer been happy to expel over the last several years after all, the purge of the antisemites – well look at Gwynne’s comments, you might have missed one – but also look at how many people have gotten away with poor conduct in Labour too, simply because they are Starmer’s sort.
I mean take Gwynne’s health department boss Wes Streeting, who once tweeted out about shoving a Mail journalist under a train for example, was allegedly caught screaming in Diane Abbott’s face in a corridor at one point as well. I mean its one thing for Gwynne to wish a pensioner dead, but Streeting threatened to do the killing!
Coming back to the matter of member expulsions, whilst MPs get preferential treatment and protection as seems clearly the case once more here, from a frit Starmer running scared of voters again, and I’d point you to just how many areas Labour have managed to get local elections suspended in this year if you doubt that – he’s terrified of voters right now – so much of it was done on the basis of racism, especially antisemitism, which was treated as a bigger issue than any other form of racism, and yet here is a WhatsApp containing antisemitic messages from a Starmer minister, showing that instead of getting on top of racism, with all the plaudits from the usual suspects, the pro Israel organisations that claim to represent Jewry, Labour has utterly failed to. Having weaponised the issue, the Hierarchy of Racism in the Labour Party as was described in the Forde Report detailing many recommendations for Labour to improve, clearly have not been and the plaudits Starmer won, were false ones, clearly in an attempt it seems to set aside the issue, having used it to successfully remove Jeremy Corbyn and we are seeing this happening again now.
Gbeebies mouthpiece Alex Armstrong for example, decided to go for a 2 in 1 hitjob, by attacking Corbyn again whilst cheering for Boris Johnson by tweeting out a video clip accompanied by a caption reading:
‘Andrew Gwynne, now Former Minister and Corbyn’s ex-Head of Campaigns, had this infamous interview where he constantly goaded Boris Johnson, invaded his personal space and of course tried to press him on the Winter Fuel Allowance… Not sure he’s somebody I’d put in my cabinet…’
He wasn’t the only one dragging Corbyn again, as the Financial Times scribble George Parker described Gwynne as a Corbyn ally, when Gwynne nominated Starmer for Labour leader in 2020 and wouldn’t have stood a chance of selection if he was anything remotely the sort.
I especially want to talk about Labour Friends of Israel here as well, because Gwynne is one of theirs, so explain how you have an apparent antisemite in your midst? Anyone would think it’s nothing to do with being Jewish and of course it isn’t is it? I’m sure he enjoyed his trips to the genocidal apartheid state though.
Starmer’s Labour remains a racist endeavour and I fully expect the party machine to try and keep Gwynne as an MP despite all of this, just like they’re trying with Mike Amesbury.
