    This is the least surprising news ever.

    No one, not one single solitary person in the entire isles, actually likes Starmer. He’s a pathetic corporate ghoul who has never had a single original thought in his life. His version of Labour is just Conservative Lite, and their only redeeming value at the polls was not actually being the Conservatives.

      Conservatives don’t like him because he’s too different to the conservatives, everyone else doesn’t like him because he’s too similar

        No, Blair actually had charisma. It’s easy to forget now, but when he came in people found him genuinely charming.

        Starmer is more like Gordon Brown if anything.

    Wait, treating a 33% result as an absolute mandate to implement a wishy-washy version of the previous government’s unpopular program was a bad idea?

    Wow, even compared to Liz Truss? But he’s so pleasant looking, and has wonderful hair! Don’t listen to me. I’ve been making weak attempts at understanding UK politics for at least a year or two, and I’m maybe 2% less clueless than I was when I started.
