Labour loyalists can’t see it now but Starmer stepping down would be the best thing that could happen for the Labour Party.
Quite frustrating the different standards different parties are held to. The Tories would’ve shrugged this off already.
Given how poor Labour messaging and comms has been, this is no bad thing.
The political editor on LBC just said Starmer won’t last the week. Not sure how likely or not that is but it certainly feels like he is running out of road
To be fair their messaging has been fucking shit so maybe a good thing
Excited to see how the top of the Jenga tower holds up without these bottom bricks holding it back.
Arrived at work on Monday morning, saw what a clusterfuck of a week lay ahead and just bailed out of there as fast as he could, he has my grudging respect
*Tim Allan started as director of communications in September 2025, serving five months in the role.*
*He is the fourth person to hold the role under Keir Starmer.*
At some point you need to consider the boss might be at fault rather than the 4 people who tried to do the job. Only 19 months from when the adults took over.
Probably a positive considering how shit their comms have been
Why is it that the media is incessantly attacking Starmer regarding this but there’s absolutely no mention of how many times Nigel Farage is mentioned in the Epstein files?
The bias is so glaringly obvious and nobody is talking about it, Starmer isn’t the problem here.
It’s like a slower and more boring version of the fallout from Chris Pincher in 2022.
It’s frustrating that after years of Tory power battles getting in the way of governance we’re seeing the same from Labour. The Mandelson issue is being used by the left of the party to attack the right of the party – the ones who actually won the election. A great way to push people away from the big parties and towards Reform. I will not tolerate a Reform government, but these selfish fools make it more likely.
Labour had a Director of Communications this whole time?
Wtf was he doing? Spending all day playing solitaire on their computer before a rigorous evening of whispering Labour announcements into a fox den in his garden? Before a nightcap writing down all the successes that Labour has achieved and throwing it in the fire so that the smoke may carry the message to the media? At night dreaming of Labour policy so that they would pass along into the ether into the dreamscapes of other members?
Did everyone just forget where the commissions office was and left them to their own devices for over a year?
Hire me, Starmer. I’ll charge a hair less than six figures and my introverted unqualified self will speak to the press on the phone at least once a week putting me nigh infinity more productive than the person who was inexplicably allowed to quit rather than be fired.
He was a massive transphobe so good riddance tbh. Had to resign from sex matters in order to take the role lol
I feel sorry for Keir Starmer, but I think he’s done. The Labour Party is too divided on the issue, which clearly shows that he has lost his authority as leader.
He absolutely shouldn’t have appointed Mandelson, and I think there should be a public enquiry into the vetting process, but he won’t last long enough to see that out.
Highly likely to be reversed as a decision in about a week. hang tight guys!
Good, let the rats flee. Hope we can get a decent replacement now to improve labours dreadful coms. Not sure who’d hire them.
Im pretty sure the previous comms director quit abour 6 months ago lol
Good. The image of no’10 hasn’t been working and they need to rebuild and move on from the Blair era image.
Interesting to see how this all goes. Ditching the back room team is likely very welcome by most in the party – and from what I can pick up, most of the third sector too.
But it does always seems like a desperate step from the leadership.
I can’t see any point in changing PM for a long time yet as the next one will be just as unpopular by the time the election comes.
The best thing Starmer can do to keep going is to actually do some good things. I’ve seen little of that from him.
Now starmer needs to take responsibility for his own decisions and follow them out the door.
Where is this energy from Reform? That entire “party” needs an overhaul for their ties to Epstein, Russia, and just overall racism.
Rats deserting the ship before it goes down with all hands. Quitting now means they might land some cushty job before all hell gets let loose.
Is Starmer really going to say with a straight face “everyone I hired was the problem but not me obviously”
Starmer truly deserves the title he’s earned. Most unpopular PM in polling history
I’m really going to miss the nauseating social media posts where they’ve tried to present communication via memes etc. They may as well have had a 15 year old on Snapchat doing their communications, at least it would’ve been more authentic.
Allen is a former Sex Matters board member as well as shocking highly questionable as a party director of comms.
Fingers crossed that clearing this taint out of the party can only be positive moving forward
Tim Allan’s departure has brought home the need for improvement
With Tim Allan gone, the buzz is that Labour comms will be lightyears ahead of rivals
Labour will scour the galaxy in their quest to replace Tim Allan
