Freshly elected to power, but still Keir Starmer cannot face up to Muslim vote losses, preferring to talk about his 'big mandate.'
Right, so it has taken Keir Starmer mere days into his governance of the country to once more remind Muslim voters that if they took their vote elsewhere from Labour this time, whether by voting for another party, or not voting at all, apathy certainly the biggest of the general election as it was, then they were right to do so. Twice in the space of a little over a minute, Keir Starmer managed to vindicate such thinking when asked about the Muslim votes Labour has lost and how he would address that, he chose instead to brag about the massive mandate he has been handed by the country. Now I’d argue he certainly has a massive majority, but the results definitely question the kind of mandate he has there, what right he has to rule, what endorsement by the country he has actually been given to do so versus a bent electoral system that favours two parties over all the others. Just because you can form a government, doesn’t mean you earned the right, though to listen to Starmer brag about it you’d think otherwise and those who didn’t vote for him, well, they don’t seem to matter very much.
Right, so that was Keir Starmer being interviewed by ITV’s political correspondent Shehab Khan and basically saying look at my big fat mandate, not once, but twice. Given Starmer was being asked about lost Muslim votes, the conclusion you draw from that is that he frankly doesn’t care. Making it worse for me, was that in light of Starmer and the hierarchy of racism in the Labour Party he presides over, the offence caused to Muslim voters over his ongoing stance regarding Israel and Gaza and notably his most recent comments whilst on the election trail complaining that people from Bangladesh were not being sent home, it didn’t escape my notice that Shehab Khan interviewing him, is himself a Muslim of Bengali heritage. Starmer was literally looking him in the eye and ignoring both times the issue of the Muslim vote and how much of he had lost, because he had this big mandate now to run the country. It’s a testament to Khan’s professionalism in my view on one hand, but Starmer’s indifference on the other. And so although he says he needs address those issues, those reasons some people didn’t vote for Labour, whilst actively campaigning he demonised and attacked many of them for the sake of winning the votes of others who agree with such sentiment. He sought the Tory hard right vote, and he didn’t get it. I don’t believe he will change tack on that either, but it’s something I’ll be happy to be proven wrong on.
On the matter of mandates, the dictionary definition of that term is:
‘The authority to carry out a policy, regarded as given by the electorate, to a party or candidate that wins an election.’
So a mandate is an assent to carry out policies you stood on a platform of, authority given by the electorate, so no arguing that Starmer has a mandate to carry out policies within his manifesto. Interestingly, if it isn’t in the manifesto, he doesn’t have a mandate to do it in which case, but all governments do stuff like that don’t they?

Hi, I'm Damien Willey. I'm a former welder, but now I'm a writer, blogger, vlogger and presenter and interviewer with Socialist Telly (Please do go and visit what we all get up to on / socialisttelly )
I'm an unpaid carer for my disabled wife and daughter and as such we know all too well the difficulties that associated with that living in Tory Britain and I personally believe the answer lies in socialism.
