Americans need to ask the themselves some deep, soul-searching questions about the why other western countries can handle betting on sport while they can’t…
"Legalize sports betting to get it out of the hands of criminals" did not require allowing phone apps to advertise about a dozen lopsided mid-game bets you were able to make.

Starmer was mid Mcsweeneygooning when a group of Net-Zeroists came and spiked his Cortisol levels 😭
Is ignoring the Net-Zeroists while munting and mogging the Rejoinerists more useful then uber-woke Mandelsonfishing in the polls?

They are in one of the best places in the world to eat food but can't go out either because Italian food is too exotic, or because they know they would be booed.
Not just the VP, not just abroad. Key members of the Trump cabinet live on military bases (Hegseth, Noem, Rubio, Miller).

There's no reason to accept this as normal, though. Much of Starmer and Labour's unpopularity is not misfortune but his own doing. Mandelson was a choice. Consistently pursuing policy positions designed to appeal to people who will not vote for you - and alienating core supporters - is a choice.
Starmer's reported condition - incredibly unpopular, shorn of authority, probably un-reelectable and yet will stagger on for want of an alternative - is just the new normal of how Britain is governed. It was also true for two-thirds of May's premiership, half of Johnson's and all of Sunak's.

5/5 PMs with approval ratings of measles isn't just a feature of failed leadership. It's Brexit Britain. There's no money for anything people want and were promised they would have, and no one can blame the people who got us into this mess because they got 52% of the vote (let alone reverse it).
