I'd have more sympathy for that position if only Starmer wasn't deliberately escalating some of the worst Tory policies aimed at inciting racism, sexism, and homophobia (specifically transphobia). These are *cheap* to walk back, not intrinsically popular, and *they kill people*.

The concept of trickle down economics I thought died with Ronald Reagan. In reality, it does not work.

Much of the problem lies with Labour’s comms. Starmer is a good guy, while some of his advisors have appeared to be a tad machiavellian.
Media coaching would also be a huge idea, He always looks like a deer caught in headlights, about to be mowed down by a Volvo SUV in a morning school run.

Meanwhile readers of the Daily Telegraph in Gloucestershire still get hot and excited over pictures of the late Margaret Thatchers cleavage embellished in pearls.

We can hope.

It’s been going on for quite a while. Fox News is to journalism what herpes was to 1960’s weekend folk music festivals.

The fact that Little Marco is vertically challenged and not America’ smartest is all information in public domain. Meanwhile there is no proof or evidence that he fellated the entire Russian peace delegation regarding Ukraine in Florida this week.

Apparently, it’s the pictures and videos that are the real problem.

Fred Trump opted for ‘The New York Military Academy’, turned out to be a ‘bigly’ bad idea for America and Planet Earth.

Time to book a slot with the orphanage reception team. 😉
