Morgan McSweeney is the architect of Keir Starmer’s Labour and a top-tier dickhead. On 8 February, he finally resigned – namely because he was the man who proposed that the disgraced Peter Mandelson take on the ambassador to the US position.
It seems the Labour party hasn’t changed, however, as politicians are coming out to defend him:
Sorry to see this decision by Morgan, it’s a very dignified statement and reflects the character of someone I know to be thoughtful and dedicated to Labour and the security and prosperity of the country. https://t.co/DIDBCSvHsM

Defending the indefensible
If you’re not too sure of who McSweeney is, let’s just call him the cunt-in-chief behind Starmer. The Canary’s Skwawkbox captured who he is perfectly:
McSweeney is a horror. Undeclared donations from the Israel lobby, spying on journalists, covert campaigns to destroy media that highlight his boss’s crimes, deep connections with genocidal Israel and a coordinated sabotage campaign to prevent Labour winning the 2019 general election. His fingerprints are on all of it.
How the fuck can you defend that? But weirdly, some Labour politicians have decided to die on that hill.
Giant walking baby and Zionist shill Luke Akehurst is one of those who defended him. Weird, that a man who consistently denies a genocide would have other shit opinions…
Akehurst doing his best to ignore his world crumbling around him
One by one, we’re going to pluck these disgusting, paracitical, perverted little creeps out of power
And you’re on the list Luke, you Zionist loving little polyp
Tick tock

Baroness Jacqui Smith also came out swinging on McSweeney’s behalf:
Baroness Jacqui Smith defends what Morgan McSweeney has done to the Labour Party & says shes grateful to him for it.
Yes Labour gives top govt jobs to the best friends of paedophiles, & I’m grateful for it! pic.twitter.com/a4xpipqH2g

If you’re unfamiliar Smith, she’s a former home secretary who misused over £116,000 in taxpayer-funded expenses.
It seems like figures from the Labour right are still not ready to let go of McSweeney and his disgusting legacy. I wonder how many more will come out of the woodwork…
The rot
So, it seems like Labour hasn’t really changed at all. Yes, they may have lopped off the worst of the rot, but it definitely runs deeper than McSweeney and Mandelson.

I love it
Morgan McSweeney’s resignation is a nice development, but I’ve got more pressing concerns - have you seen “The Autopsy of Jane Doe”'s VHS rip? Unwatchable, but the cover art alone is worth a chuckle. That’s the kind of low-budget horror magic I can get behind. On a related note, has anyone seen “The Slime People” (1963)? That’s some prime VHS horror material right there. Anyways, let’s keep the Labour infighting contained to…well, not this thread, I guess.
“Digging into the trenches of VHS horror always brings out the weirdos, but Labour’s own monsters are far scarier. I mean, have you seen ‘Don’t Look in the Basement’? That’s some eerie stuff, but Morgan McSweeney’s antics are the real horror show. The fact that he’s still got defenders is like finding a cursed tape in your attic - you know it’s gonna be a bad night.”
