I’m seeing a lot of international messages getting this wrong, so this is how you refer to the Prime Minister of the UK.
First, we normally refer to the PM just by name, like anyone else. So, “Keir Starmer” or “Mr Starmer”.
“Prime Minister” is not used as a title like “President” is. He’s not “Prime Minister Starmer”. He’s just “the Prime Minister” or “the Prime Minister, Keir Starmer”.
Unusually, this new PM is also a knight. Of course, this has its own rules.
If you want to use this title, it’s not quite as simple as replacing “Mr” with "Sir’. The first name is more important than the surname here. He’s not “Sir Starmer”. He’s “Sir Keir Starmer” or “Sir Keir”.
Hope it helps!
He’s “Sir Keir Starmer” or “Sir Keir”.
Oh, so when you say it it’s alright, but when we say it “it’s called football”. Double standards much?
Incredible username
Mother fucker! I nearly broke my tongue just trying to pronounce that in my head
The Right Honourable Member of Parliament Sir Keir Rodney Starmer, Knight of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath, King’s Council to His Royal Majesty Charles the Third, by the Grace of God of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of His other Realms and Territories, King, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith, Lord of Mann, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Anything less is offensive and requires a licence.
Or you can just abbreviate that to “Cunt”
We all do it over here in blighty
The right honourable, Sir Cunt?
He’s not honorable, and fuck his landed title. Just ‘right cunt’ is better
I figured this was going to be somebody wanting to talk about his politics or something like that but no it’s just a pedantic Englishman pissed that people are using the wrong title
Why bother getting to know their politics? The UK has been going through Prime Ministers faster than McDonalds fry cooks.
/s
Not to mention cabbages.
Fewer cabbages
What? You mean to tell me that he is not called Sir Prime Minister Mr. Keir Rodney Starmer? Unbelievable.
I’m calling him Mr. Sir
It’s doctor, actually.
