What a ####ing disgrace the Labour Party is. Loach is the UK's greatest living film director. Internationally recognised as a master director. A man with a huge heart and an affinity for working people and their often brutal and oppressed lives.

That there's no room for him in Labour, that he's become toxic for simply being a real socialist a career dedicated to social justice and truth telling... well, it beggars belief that even talking to him is dangerous.

What about the rest of the artistic community? Isn't it time for outrage at the vile Starmer regime? Where's the solidarity with Ken Loach? What about freedom of speech and association? How can anyone with a spine, a conscience, any principles support this dreadful Labour Party. Better to vote for the Tories, at leat their honest about being Tories, not like this shower at Labour. Boris Johnson is arguably more radical and "leftwing" than Keir Starmer.
