Starmer's vision quest

That said I think it's accepted that he's goosed. He simply cannot 'do' politics in the performative mode that's needed.

I've been wondering about "the performative aspect" and am maybe changing my views (a bit). Maybe what the UK needs is some inspiration, somebody to generate some enthusiasm in business, a feeling we are going somewhere rather than maybe sort of struggling to stand still.

Starmer/Reeves seem to fail to inspire and motivate, maybe too technocratic but without business feeling there is a future, that it is worth pushing forward then they won't and we won't get the growth and we're stuck treading water.

Starmer with another U turn, although this one should be welcomed by most.

It was apparently well received. He’s arguably doing better on the international scene than domestically. It’s a bit odd that on one hand he is pandering to Reform voters then on the other is suggesting improving ties with Europe. It seems very muddled thinking.

I agree, he's doing much better on the international front than the domestic one

Ha he accused Refuk of fawning over Putin. Hoping at last the gloves are off.
