I can believe that. Coming back from overseas you clearly see how deprived the UK is.

They will never be able to do that because they will never trade with countries fairly and refrain from the kind of actions that destabilises other places. But it will appeal to the Reform mob.

It sounds like someone has told Biden he’s in his second term and he’s now ready to quit.

Yes and no. It’s an interesting comparison - Starmer really doesn’t have much of a democratic mandate. He’s just got a lot of MPs by a quirk of the daft electoral system. More people probably opposed Corbyn but also lots more people were enthused by him too.

I see the internet collapsed just after Starmer seized power.

More people probably opposed Corbyn but also lots more people were enthused by him too. But I think it’s more than they need to just get over the fact that Corbyn is not the party leader. And his comment about Corbyn winning comfortably in Islington North is just funny.

Corbyn winning Islington is genuinely funny. And a terrible indictment of Starmer. Although a bigger indictment of the Tories that a fully splitting center-left vote happened and they still finished with fewer than 10% of Corbyn’s votes.

Oh, be fair, you have to be a very special sort of spastic to be an Islingtonian.

I thought Jones comment was funny because he seemed to thing it means something. It’s not really surprising he would win it - highly educated, progressive area - it was always going to go Corbyn.
