Mick Lynch has faced backlash after telling voters to 'grow up' and see Keir Starmer as the only alternative, sparking controversy. Critics, including those labeling Starmer a 'genocidal Zionist maniac' and calling Lynch's comments 'patronising', have voiced strong opposition. The debate, intensified by calls to #BoycottLabour, highlights deep divisions over Starmer's leadership and Labour's stance on issues like Gaza, with some accusing the party of being out of touch.
Labour got themselves into a mess over Gaza. Keir Starmer said some weird and wrong stuff on the radio and was slow to admit it. But they have almost exactly nothing to do with what's going on in the Middle East and the idea that they are "complicit" in "genocide" or "support"… https://t.co/GgI2cTFIXf
Mick Lynch wants me to grow up but I already am grown up to decide I’m not going to vote for Starmer’s Party. What a patronising thing to say.
Mick Lynch is 180 degrees wrong. @UKLabour isn't even the lesser of two evils, in many ways, a Starmer-led govt would be even worse. The truth is Labour is a bigger barrier to creating a good society and ending wars than the Tories. #BoycottLabour everywhere. https://t.co/4IEG2IZVmL
I think it’s actually Mick Lynch who needs to “grow up” and realise that millions will never, ever vote for a genocidal Zionist maniac like Keir Starmer. I don’t want a Labour government that is directly driving a holocaust in Gaza, even more enthusiastically than the Tories. https://t.co/aoOGe2SYVs
Mick Lynch says voters must ‘grow up’ and see Starmer is only alternative https://t.co/gJlp0kzQzc
Why is Mick Lynch channeling your average Facebook centrist prick? Has he been drugged or bought? We're NOT voting Labour, Mick. What the fuck dimension are you living in?
