There’s a very interesting and amusing story over at Guido’s place. This story may or may not shed any light on whether the Labour Party leader Sir Keir Starmer has ever taken illegal drugs.
Apparently a young lawyer working at the time for the National Council for Civil Liberties who is claimed to be Starmer, attempted to ingratiate himself with some Acid House ravers outside a court.
Guido said:
Back in 1989 when the editor was spending his weekends orbiting the M25 helping to organise acid house raves, on occasions in the week afterwards he would find himself in the courts in relation to causing a public nuisance, various noise related civil offences, and suchlike. On one occasion a young barrister from the National Council for Civil Liberties argued, on our behalf, that Thames Valley Police had acted unlawfully by setting up roadblocks and confiscating sound equipment to prevent a Sunrise rave from taking place. It was “an incredible abuse of police powers”, he argued. We lost that case…
Whilst the rave organisers were waiting outside the court, the suited, and frankly square, young barrister chit-chatted with his sartorially psychedelic clients. Making small talk to pass the time, he told them (perhaps in an effort to boost his street credibility) that when he was younger he had taken LSD. That self-confessed acid tripper was Keir Starmer…
Personally I really don’t care whether Starmer took LSD when he was a younger man, lots of people do stupid things when they are young, I used to climb Gasometers as a teenager for example. However this particular drug’s ability to make users see things that are not real, it might explain just why Sir Keir Starmer is so attracted to Socialism. After all Socialism promises stuff that it cannot deliver, such as equality and a good life for all, but invariably whenever and wherever it has been tried, brings nothing but misery and mass deaths. Socialism causes people to believe things that are patently not real and not true.
The real question with regards drugs and Starmer is how large a pile of psychedelics would the average British voter need to take in order to make them believe that Starmer and his Labour Party could competently run Britain? I reckon it would need to be a pretty big pile that would need to be ingested by each voter before people believed that the likes of Starmer, Lammy, Rayner, Burgon and the rest of Labour’s miserable crowd of morons looked like suitable people to run Britain’s government. Maybe a pile THIS big perhaps?
