Repubblica.it: Michael Dobbs: “Il Regno Unito è un caos, peggio della mia House of Cards” Intervista allo scrittore, Lord, ex consigliere supremo di Thatcher e autore del romanzo poi diventato serie tv mondiale con Kevin Spacey: “Oggi la politica è dominata dai social media, dove tutti pretendono cose, ma nessuno parla più delle responsabilità. I politici di oggi si accodano a questo andazzo e si illudono di sopravvivere, dicendo alla gente quello che vuole sentirsi dire. Starmer non ha visione, ma non vedo in giro alternative serie” Michael Dobbs: “The United Kingdom is a mess, worse than my House of Cards.” Interview with the writer, Lord, former chief advisor to Thatcher and author of the novel that later became a worldwide TV series with Kevin Spacey: “Today politics is dominated by social media, where everyone demands things, but no one ever talks about responsibility. Today’s politicians should follow this trend and delude themselves into surviving by telling people what they want to hear. Starmer has no vision, but I don’t see any serious alternatives around.” #MichaelDobbs #TheUnitedKingdom #HouseofCards #Thatcher #KevinSpacey #Starmer https://www.repubblica.it/esteri/2026/05/14/news/michael_dobbs_intervista_regno_unito_caos_house_of_cards_starmer-425343678/

Il Tempo: Regno Unito, scricchiola il governo. La ministra si dimette e chiede un passo indietro a Starmer: "Andiamo avanti" Dopo la debacle dei labouristi alle recenti elezioni amministrative, scricchiola il governo britannico. La ministra per le Comunità, Miatta Fahnbulleh, ha rassegnato le dimissioni e chiesto al premier Keir Starmer di fare altrettanto. In una lettera condivisa su sulla piattaforma, la ministra si dice orgogliosa di quanto fatto finora pur riconoscendo di non aver "agito con la visione, il ritmo e l'ambizione che il nostro mandato di cambiamento ci impone". Per Fahnbulleh, il paese "si trova ad affrontare sfide enormi e la gnete chiede a gran voce un cambiamento di tale portata" e, rifererendosi a Starmer, ha detto: "L'opinione pubblica non crede che tu possa guidare questo cambiamento, e nemmeno io lo credo. Pertanto, ti esorto a fare ciò che è giusto per il Paese e per il partito e a stabilire un calendario per una transizione ordinata, in modo che una nuova squadra possa realizzare il cambiamento che abbiamo promesso al Paese". Da Downing Street, però, la risposta è no. "Il Partito Laburista ha una procedura per contestare un leader e questa non è stata attivata - dice Starmer - Il Paese si aspetta che continuiamo a governare. Questo è quello che sto facendo e quello che dobbiamo fare come governo". Niente marcia indietro, quindi. Starmer si assume la "responsabilità di questi risultati elettorali e di realizzare il cambiamento promesso". Per innescare la procedura di cambio del leader nel partito, un deputato deve anzitutto comunicare al Comitato esecutivo nazionale la propria intenzione di lanciare la sfida. Dopodiché può iniziare a raccogliere il sostegno formale: per ottenere una competizione elettorale sarebbe necessario ottenere l'appoggio del 20% del gruppo laburista. A quel punto il leader in carica verrebbe automaticamente inserito nella lista dei candidati. L'emittente britannica Sky News spiega che, sebbene 78 deputati abbiano chiesto pubblicamente le dimissioni di Starmer, tali richieste non attivano alcun meccanismo all'interno del partito per dare avvio a una competizione. The UK government is crumbling. The minister resigns and asks Starmer to step down: “Let’s move forward.” Following the Labour Party’s defeat in the recent local elections, the British government is crumbling. Communities Minister Miatta Fahnbulleh has resigned and asked Prime Minister Keir Starmer to do the same. In a letter shared on the platform, the minister says she is proud of what has been achieved so far, while acknowledging that she has not “acted with the vision, the pace and the ambition that our mandate for change demands.” For Fahnbulleh, the country “faces enormous challenges and the public is demanding change of such magnitude” and, referring to Starmer, she said: “Public opinion does not believe you can lead this change, and neither do I. Therefore, I urge you to do what is right for the country and for the party and to establish a timetable for a smooth transition, so that a new team can deliver the change we promised the country.” However, from Downing Street the response is no. “The Labour Party has a process for challenging a leader and this has not been activated - says Starmer - The country expects us to continue governing. That is what I am doing and what we must do as a government.” No backing down, then. Starmer takes responsibility for “these election results and to deliver the promised change.” To trigger the leadership change process within the party, a Member of Parliament must first communicate to the National Executive Committee their intention to challenge. Following this, they can begin to gather formal support: to achieve an electoral contest, 20% of the Labour group would need to back them. At that point, the incumbent leader would automatically be included in the list of candidates. The British broadcaster Sky News explains that, while 78 MPs have publicly asked for Starmer’s resignation, these requests do not activate any mechanism within the party to initiate a competition. #Starmer #theLabourParty’s #British #Communities #MiattaFahnbulleh #KeirStarmer #Fahnbulleh #DowningStreet #TheLabourParty #Parliament #first #Labour #SkyNews https://www.iltempo.it/esteri/2026/05/12/news/regno-unito-scricchiola-il-governo-la-ministra-si-dimette-e-chiede-un-passo-indietro-a-starmer-andiamo-avanti--47684676/

RaiNews: L'ultimatum a Starmer dopo il tracollo alle amministrative: lasci altrimenti sarà sfidato Sempre più membri del Labour chiedono all'inquilino di Downing Street di passare la mano, reduce dalla pesante sconfitta alle elezioni locali in Scozia e Galles.

More and more Labour MPs are asking the occupant of Downing Street to step aside, following the heavy defeat in the local elections in Scotland and Wales.

"One proves political maturity by not banging on about injustice, by not troubling too much the rich and powerful. To try it out, simply stand in front of a mirror and slowly declare yourself to be “pro-business and pro-worker”. If you can do that without flinching at the obvious contradiction, then congratulations! You too can be prime minister" This isn't my analysis of why #Starmer has been a disaster; but it is a convincing analysis. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/may/06/labour-wipeout-adults-in-the-room-con-job-keir-starmer-elections

“When Muslim men are murdered [in the UK - my edit], the reaction is institutional indifference” by Skwawkbox with The Canary @thecanaryuk@independent-media.co.uk @uk_politics @UKLabour@mastodon.cloud @palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai @palestine@lemmy.ml @BBC5Live@social.bbc @BBCRadio4@social.bbc @BBCNews@flipboard.com @guardian@press.coop @Independent@flipboard.com @thetimes@press.coop “Abdul Wali Mamozai, a Muslim man, was murdered in Bracknell on 27 April, a few days before a mentally ill man wounded two Jewish people — and one Muslim man — in London. When the latter attack took place, the media went into a frenzy. The Muslim victim was airbrushed out to a footnote at best. The government and ‘opposition’ condemned the ‘antisemitic’ attack, immediately announcing special measures and huge amounts of extra funding for security for the Jewish community. They also deleted the Muslim victim” https://www.thecanary.co/skwawkbox/2026/05/04/muslim-men-islamophobia-uk/ #Press #SocialMedia #UK #Islamophobia #Murder #Airbrush #Victim #InstitutionalRacism #Labour #Starmer #AntiSemitism #Israel #PalestinianGenocide
