Cancerian Posted September 30, 2025 Share Posted September 30, 2025 David Lammy has been our Deputy Prime Minister for a short while but his comments today after Keir Starmer’s disastrous speech at the Labour conference surely warrant his resignation? What do people think? 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/367885-has-david-lammy-just-lost-his-job/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
malumbu Posted September 30, 2025 Share Posted September 30, 2025 Why was it a disastrous speech? I watched the BBC news and then listened to some of the discussion and it didn't come across like this, You clearly hate Labour and everything they stand for. Have Your Say on the BBC website may be a better place for you to post your strong views. 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/367885-has-david-lammy-just-lost-his-job/#findComment-1722231 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancerian Posted September 30, 2025 Author Share Posted September 30, 2025 Strong views? I thought this was The Lounge so anyone could bring something up? This is an important part of our day to day life and the Labour Party isn’t doing what they promised since their election nearly a year and a half ago. 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/367885-has-david-lammy-just-lost-his-job/#findComment-1722234 Share on other sites More sharing options...

vladi Posted October 1, 2025 Share Posted October 1, 2025 I hope he survives as it wasn't quite a hanging offence. He does tend to be a bit accident prone such as saying that Henry V11 succeeded Henry V111 and that Marie Antoinette won the Nobel prize. 1 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/367885-has-david-lammy-just-lost-his-job/#findComment-1722250 Share on other sites More sharing options...

A pox?

Sephiroth Posted October 1, 2025 Share Posted October 1, 2025 There are legal problems when especially high profile individuals call other individuals racist - which or any explains Lammy backtracking but if YOU are not able to look at Farage, his statements and his history and not see that he is a massive racist, then the problem isn’t legal but your own (poxy) brokenness cancerian: do you think farage has a racist bone in his body?

Sephiroth Posted October 1, 2025 Share Posted October 1, 2025 (edited) It’s allowed. Just weirdly unnecessary. Surely easy enough for a native like yourself or do we foreigners have to teach ye everything?

Guest Posted October 1, 2025 Share Posted October 1, 2025 (edited) "Surely easy enough for a native like yourself " assumptions, assumptions, assumptions, not a good starting point. Now as we've been getting along so well, let's not spoil it. We can be the same but different as well. I speak like a native, educated like a native, worked as and with other natives, look like a native but I'm not one of them. See theirs this thing called indirect prejudice, have a surname that isn't that of a native and some, a minority I agree, will try and have one over on you, because they think they're better, or you're inferior to them. When you've experienced it first hand, you don't forget and get ready for the next time, then call it out, they don't like that. They don't appreciate that being part British having been born here but as I also have continental ancestry, which I am proud off, it gives me a different perspective of living amongst the natives here, so I can not, nor do I ever want to be a native here. I am me and they are what they are.

malumbu Posted October 1, 2025 Share Posted October 1, 2025 Credible enough that a National newspaper reported it and that he didn't see them. Do you think he is a racist? Or to be more diplomatic that some of his party's policies meet the criteria of being racist?

Gaff after Gaff after gaff, get calamity Starmer et al OUT at the first opportunity. You'll all soon see on November 26th when Reeves steers UK into an economic iceberg and the sinking really happens when our pockets get plundered by her, any which way she can take, take, take from us all. We won't have anything left because the State will own and control everything, if you want to live under that type of regime, fine, but I don't, so get up and JUST SAY NO to Starmergedeon and Reevesageddeon.

Just wait and see how painful the 26/11 will be. She's going to sting each and everyone of us. I think you'll find the majority of those in this country think she's screwed up the economy good and proper. Only those who are totally loyal to that Party will think she's done good when the facts and figures show she's done bad.

vladi Posted October 2, 2025 Share Posted October 2, 2025 If my understanding is correct, David Lammy asserted that Farage "flirted with the Hitler Youth". This doesn't quite compute because the Hitler Youth ceased to exist in 1945 with the end of WW2 whereas Farage was not born until 1964. Maybe Lammy confused the Hitler Youth with the Combined Cadet Force (CCF) because Farage was member of the CCF during his time at Dulwich College. Having informed us that Henry V11 succeeded Henry V111, we cannot but conclude that arithmetic was never Lammy's strongest suit. Then again, on a question on history, he claimed that Marie Antoinette won a Nobel prize Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/367885-has-david-lammy-just-lost-his-job/#findComment-1722418 Share on other sites More sharing options...
