This must be Starmer’s boldest move since he ate all the crackling off the pork one Sunday

[Me too].

Yes, I have seen that and it appears to be a "make of it what you want" diplomatic barb. "All hard brexit advocates?."

He basically has a week to shit of get off the pot, as does that bloke in the allotment who will probably do neither.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

[Even more unsure of meaning]

What does pork crackling have to do with anything? Or some geezer on an allotment taking a dump?

It's like doing the cryptic crossword.

[Kreuzberger]

Ah, I was commenting on Starmer's words rather than the Youngster's narrative.

Presumably, a metaphor for the bold actions of a man who is not given to boldness. I might be wrong.

It's very good at busting dentures...

And for the record, I'm baffled too.

[Abernathy]

Obvious, innit? Starmer is going to eat all the crackling, leaving none for Jezferatu - who wouldn't want any, anyway 'cos all he eats is Peruvian quinoa and radishes off his allotment.

I think it's a bold move.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

Or is the crackling/pork a reference to him not being a Jew? Or a Muslim? Or a Vegan?

Oh, I give up.

Shitting or getting off the pot, m'lud, is an oft used phrase to plead for decisive action. In this instance, on the part of Mister Starmer. The latter is simply, 4 across;

"Apple remnants disposed of after familiar Labour leader"

Easy!

[Malcolm Armsteen]

I get that part, and the crossword clue, but why is Starmer being castigated for indecisiveness?

[youngian]

I just was thinking of something like May's field of wheat run to demonstrate Starmer's lack of impetus in his shadow Brexit post. Interestingly m'learned friend doesn't clarify which hard Brexiters that Tweet is aimed at.

[Safe_Timber_Man]

I like crackling.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

I like crackling.

I crackle all the time. It's my age...

[Abernathy]

I like crackling.

When was the last time you crackled?
