The slang term has two meanings in the U.K. and U.S., respectively. When a Brit calls themselves "gooners," they are emphasizing their support for the Arsenal Football Club. However, Americans refer to "gooners" as impulsive pornography addicts who are known to be chronic masturbators.

This is a non-story. He was addressing Parliament. Why would the US meaning be at all relevant when the UK PM addresses the UK Parliament?

What's with the British and their ?

Seems kind of tame for British PMs, at least Starmer hasn't fucked a dead pig, as far as we know

I mean, I don’t doubt that Sir Keir is jorkin’ it, and by “it” I mean his peanits.

Maybe not at his desk.

The pun being that Arsenal kept placing very highly in the Premier League for years without actually winning it.

Arsenal fans are gooners. Very interesting term.

Not a fan of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Goon_Show though?
