Is Keir Starmer selling influence on Labour policy?

A Politico Europe story has quoted Keir Starmer as encouraging noew donors with promises to mold policy.
Right, so yesterday I made a video over Labour’s National Policy Forum, which was more of a no policy forum, since the party appears to be too afraid to stand for anything and certainly isn’t interested in the ideas and policy desires from those who support and fund the party, the members, the local politicians and the trade unions and I said there may be a reason for that, so have a listen this a minute: Speaking alongside Blair-era Minister Peter Mandelson at a business roundtable in late January, Starmer said he wanted to “extract as much as I can from you, have a really grown-up conversation, and also for you to see that it is possible to mold, have your fingerprints on what we’re doing,” two people present told Politico.’ That’s the first few lines of an article written in Politico Europe, A German owned news outlet from back in March, about a meeting Starmer held with his Luciferous handler Peter Mandelson as told to them by two people present and it would seem one key reason why Starmer may not want to take policy direction from the Labour Movement, is because he’s putting policy up for sale. I’ll say it again, extract as much as I can from you, have a really grown-up conversation, and also for you to see that it is possible to mold, have your fingerprints on what we’re doing. That was the quote, how else would you read that? Now of course this is just one outlet, perhaps not a wonderfully well known one, but how often do you find the news reported by foreign owned outlets turn out to be far more honest than the ones we actually have? Now for those of us who have followed, even been victims of what Starmer has been doing since he became leader, this likely is of no surprise. He worship’s at the altar of Tony Blair, Blair chased the membership away in disgust and so Starmer has done the same, making sure they go if they won’t go willingly. Had to really didn’t he? He knew he’d only get the job from a membership enthused by what Corbyn began by pretending to be the same and then once in, turned on them and suspending Corbyn drove them away all the faster. Those wanting to hang in there? Well let’s see, let’s purge them retrospectively so even if they think they’ve done nothing wrong, let’s tell them otherwise! Long story short, the membership of the party has been decimated since Starmer took over, by last Summer 170,000 members had gone and the membership will only have kept going south since. That’s a lot of membership fees drying up, but that’s how they want it. The treatment of the trade unions at the national policy forum though and their reaction to it is something else though. Without the unions, Labour would collapse, it's the lions share of the party’s funding.
