I assume that is some kind of negative comment about something. What is quite beyond me Yes, Starmer got a knighthood following his stint as DPP. Not bad for a state school lad from a family of five children in Southwark. They f***ing dole out those knighthoods like confetti nowadays so that's no achievement.

The bloke lived in oxted a very affluent area and his dad the tool maker was the owner of a tool making factory. He's a posh boy and comes from ££££. So Labour will have another rich kid leader. Have Labour in recent years had any real working class leaders? All the people I know who vote Labour are far from working class folk! Edited by cpfc_chap (04 Apr 2020 4.40am)

How much did he pay to go to school? I too passed my 11+ and went to a Direct Grant school. I always understood DG and VA schools weren’t allowed to charge fees for pupils, I expect you know better

So Corbyn leaves as Labour lesder. Meanwhile, in a sign of just how much politics has changed since he started, this is the FT's editorial today. [Tweet Link]
