Let's look at @UKLabour's performance since they took office on 5 July 2024 after winning the general election on 4 July. The government, then under Keir Starmer, has faced multiple controversies, resignations, and scandals. These range from early โ€œsleazeโ€/freebies issues to ministerial misconduct, policy U-turns under pressure, and a prolonged crisis over the appointment of Peter Mandelson as US ambassador (linked to Jeffrey Epstein). Coverage draws from reports in outlets including the Guardian, BBC, iNews, Reuters, and others.โ  2024 Freebies / โ€œGiftgateโ€ / โ€œPasses for glassesโ€ (Augustโ€“October 2024): Starmer and other senior figures (including Angela Rayner and Rachel Reeves) accepted high-value gifts and hospitality from donors, notably Labour peer Lord Waheed Alli. These included clothing, glasses, use of accommodation, and tickets (e.g., Taylor Swift concerts, Arsenal matches). Starmer had declared over ยฃ100,000 in gifts/hospitality since 2019โ€”more than any other MP. Critics said it undermined the partyโ€™s โ€œchangeโ€ message after years of Conservative sleaze. Starmer repaid some post-election gifts (around ยฃ6,000), and senior figures stopped accepting clothing donations. Sue Gray (Starmerโ€™s chief of staff) resigned in October amid related criticism and internal friction.โ  Louise Haigh resignation (November 2024): The Transport Secretary resigned after it emerged she had pleaded guilty in 2013โ€“14 to a fraud-related offence involving a work mobile phone she incorrectly reported as stolen.โ  2025 Tulip Siddiq resignation (January 2025): The Treasury/anti-corruption minister stepped down over family ties to her aunt, Sheikh Hasina (former Bangladeshi PM accused of corruption). An investigation found no rule breach but highlighted reputational risks.โ  Andrew Gwynne's sacking (February 2025): The public health minister was sacked and suspended from the party after offensive WhatsApp messages surfaced (including hoping a non-supporting pensioner would die, plus racist/sexist comments).โ  Rushanara Ali resignation (August 2025): The homelessness minister quit after allegations she did not renew tenantsโ€™ leases (claiming plans to sell) and then re-let the property at a substantially higher rent.โ  Angela Rayner's resignation (September 2025): The Deputy Prime Minister, Housing Secretary, and Labour deputy leader resigned after the independent ethics adviser found she breached the Ministerial Code by underpaying stamp duty (around ยฃ40,000) on an ยฃ800,000 flat in Hove. She accepted full responsibility.โ  Peter Mandelson/Epstein scandal (appointment late 2024; major fallout from September 2025 onwards): Starmer appointed the Labour veteran as US ambassador. Documents and emails later showed closer-than-admitted ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein (including defending him and referring to him as a close friend). Mandelson was sacked in September 2025. Further revelations led to a police investigation (suspicion of misconduct in public office; he was arrested in February 2026 but not charged at the time of reports). Questions arose over vetting: reports indicated security concerns were raised/overruled, with claims of pressure from No 10 to fast-track the appointment. This triggered further resignations (e.g., chief of staff Morgan McSweeney in February 2026, who took responsibility for advising the appointment; Foreign Office permanent secretary Olly Robbins later). It became one of the most damaging and prolonged controversies, contributing to leadership pressure.โ  Other notable issues: Early two-child benefit cap rebellion and MP suspensions (July 2024); winter fuel payment cuts (later reversed amid backlash); welfare/benefits reform climbdowns after internal rebellions (e.g., 2025); grooming gangs inquiry U-turn (June 2025, after initial resistance); various other ministerial departures and internal briefing wars. Later developments (into 2026) The Mandelson affair continued to dominate, with further document releases, vetting controversies, and high-profile exits. Combined with poor local/election results, policy U-turns, and low polling, it fuelled leadership speculation and additional resignations (including some senior ministers expressing lost confidence). Keir Starmerโ€™s premiership faced sustained pressure, with reports of his eventual departure in mid-2026 amid the accumulated crises.โ  Many early issues involved accepted gifts/hospitality (legal but politically damaging) or personal conduct. Policy controversies (cuts, U-turns) often stemmed from fiscal pressures or party rebellions rather than classic "sleaze". The Mandelson case stands out for its scale, Epstein connection, and questions of judgement and process. This is just the tip of the icebergโ€”smaller rows and resignations occurredโ€”but this does cover the highest-profile ones reported across major UK and international media. Public trust of @UKLabour has been and still is significantly affected. Call a #GeneralElection now. The @uklabour and @Conservatives under Badenoch are not the sharpest pencils in the drawer. It is blatantly obvious that @ITV was paid to set up the traps.
Fundraising off the back of covering up blatant racism. Really?

@Keir_Starmer Oi, shit for brains, you are no longer the Prime Minister; you got kicked out, remember? Change your profile to "unemployable."

Matt Chorley should be dismissed for fake reporting; he was persistent in quoting the words "white cold rage" during the interview with Badenoch!! #DefundTheBBC

@TiceRichard @Nigel_Farage @ZiaYusufUK Why is the comment / reply disabled? As a long-term supporter for the @reformparty_uk Why are you not allowing any comments from your own supporters? This is allegedly a party for the people?
Afghan illegal, not an engineer but a criminal, rampaging through Bradford last year How much more will the British people take? How many more women & children will be raped and assaulted by these illegals? Only a Reform Govt will stop this carnage

Closed to a response,๐Ÿค” riddle me this? @EmillyThornberry Well, well, well, Collard will have plenty of time to read the questionnaire and pass on a pack of lies. @UKLabour is inherently deluded. Perhaps future criminals could request a questionnaire instead of having to turn up for a court of justice appearance.
Ian Collard will be giving evidence to the Foreign Affairs Committee in writing. I have written to the interim Permanent Under Secretary at the Foreign Office setting out the questions we wish Mr Collard to answer. committees.parliament.uk/pubโ€ฆ

These two clowns ๐Ÿคก๐Ÿคก hold a virtual meeting at taxpayers' expense, obviously unaware that the Strait of Hormuz is fully open to shipping. Seriously, you couldn't make this farcical theatrical show up. ๐Ÿซจ #StarmerOut #Resign #LabourOut
