Starmer appeared pathetic and powerless in his speech like an Israeli sodomy rape victim with the broomstick still firmly impaled and clenched.
Starmer has created this violence with his support of mass murder and genocide by Israel which has led to reactions from those who now see the UK's acceptance of mass murder and violence as a license to replicate it.
Starmer's victory was illusory as he received fewer votes than Labor did in the previous election and many Labor MPs won by just a handful of votes.
The future appears bleak for the UK because Starmer has more questions than answers and Starmer has been inciting violence in Gaza.

Home secretary condemns ‘utterly appalling’ scenes as bottles and chairs thrown outside Holiday Inn Express

A far-right-led mob of masked rioters tried to set fire to a hotel housing asylum seekers as further violence flared across the country at anti-immigration protests.
Some 700 people gathered outside the Holiday Inn Express in Rotherham, before clashing with police. Some rioters hurled pieces of wood, bottles and chairs, and sprayed fire extinguishers at police officers.
South Yorkshire police said at least 10 officers had been injured, including one who was left unconscious with a head injury.
Footage from the scene showed a bin on fire and protesters, some draped in St George and union flags, chanting: “Get them out.” The demonstrators appeared at one point to storm into the hotel, with reports of a fire inside, and people peering out of windows.
The home secretary, Yvette Cooper, condemned the rioters: “The criminal, violent attack on a hotel housing asylum seekers in Rotherham is utterly appalling,” she said. “Deliberately setting fire to a building with people known to be inside.
“South Yorkshire police have full government support for the strongest action against those responsible.”

Protests at the Holiday Inn Express began at midday, immediately turning into a riot when a mob of far-right individuals, mostly men, smashed windows and set a stairwell in the building alight, temporarily overwhelming police.
Shabnam Shabir, who came as part of a group of counter-protesters, said she had been left traumatised after her group was surrounded and kettled by the mob, who chanted racist words and called her the p-word.
“It was a lot of angry, angry, angry far right,” she said. “This is very scary.”
She was left stranded in her car outside the hotel, unable to leave until the rioters did. “And we have people inside of the hotel who are scared for their lives so it’s terrifying.”
Police closed roads around the hotel, which is on a major roundabout and connected by roads on three sides. By 5pm, they had made space around the building and pushed the rioters back with their shields.
A number of officers were injured, and one was taken to hospital with a head injury caused by a brick thrown by a member of the far right. One experienced South Yorkshire police officer said it was by far the worst riot he had attended.
A female rioter was crying as she was taken to safety behind the police line with a bleeding wound on the back of her head. Some parents had brought their children, who could be seen throwing stones at the riot police.

One woman, who had come with her partner and child to demonstrate outside the hotel claimed she had seen asylum seekers “with machetes and holding the British flag and sticking their fingers up at it”.
No other witnesses the Guardian spoke to had seen this.
“We’ve just come because we want our country back. This hotel was supposed to be for women and children but it’s full of men and there are loads of reports of them attacking women and stuff.”
Protesters occasionally broke into chants of “Tommy Robinson”, “Yorkshire” and “we want our country back”. Fireworks were aimed in the vicinity of mounted police. Two police helicopters circled ahead. Officers said they were expecting a long night.
Just after 6pm, South Yorkshire police said no hotel employees or guests had been hurt and that officers had regained access to the hotel and were “continuing to disperse” the rioters. One arrest has been made so far.
Assistant chief constable Lindsey Butterfield said the behaviour seen had been “nothing short of disgusting”. ...
