Because he's an absolute crank who seems so broken by Starmer that he appears to be suggesting he's was bought for a book to excuse war crimes.

Next Tory leader
According to you and Grendel it seems so yes. But that's for the other thread.

I actually think he may have voted in 2005 for Michael Howard
Someone had to I suppose
Yes but we're talking about a book here.
And it clearly had nothing to do with the immunity for a war criminal like that guy is suggesting.

It’s bizarre - I wonder if he thinks it’s a fictional character called Kier Starmer and not a researched evidence based book
I don't, I'm saying it's irrelevant.

Who you voting for this week Tony - going full Suella this time?
Your incredible reading comprehension comes to the fore again.
You've read 'Book on places & history in Israel' have you?

You were voting for Tory austerity back then backed by the same media

It was clearly the exact point of the tweet
You may have been making a different point (about the Times journalists) but the author of the tweet is quite clearly making it about the book and Israel.
No, you seem to be talking about a totally different book that no one else is.
Keep up.

These Tory boys are beyond parody at this point.
You've burst into the conversation and are talking about a totally different book.
Unless, I'll ask again, you have read 'Book on places & history in Israel'?

You’re advocating for the Tories now! Remove the beam from your own eye.

You're voting for a party promising nothing but austerity

I hate to agree with PVA as it's most unedifying, but why on earth is Starmer being given a book in that tweet? Are we really supposed to think that he thought it was such a fantastic book that he decided to let somebody off a war crimes trial, with no justification for doing so at all?
I also read the article Steve linked about Hoyle, and I don't see anything wrong with his trip based on that!
Meanwhile... I must agree with SBT. It is slightly worrying that there's a possibility Braverman will indeed be next leader of the Conservatives. You'd hope that'd mean they'd be destroyed in an election, but Trump looked a harmless crank who just shot his mouth off with nobody listening, and he's now mainstream and worrying. In recent years, British politics does tend to follow American politics a few years later on delay, so maybe we will see a Braverman premiership.
What a thought(!)

Exactly. It's an absurd tweet.
(though describing agreeing with me as being unpleasant seems a little harsh!)

Still better than the Tories. And neither party are promising austerity technically. Both parties plans have spending rising.

You are in reality a Tory now anyway
