Starmer's vision quest

[Shortfall]

Trump isn't going to beat up Starmer for you.
Stop embarassing yourself.

I think even an 80 year old Trump could batter Starmer judging by his display with the punch bag that time. Saying that, Starmer is rumoured to quite useful with his fists in other areas. That's if the whispers are to be believed of course.

Government exceeded its powers and lost when challenged.

Like pretty much all these cases it was, or should have been, obvious that the action was unlawful but they blundered on anyway.

Like Palestine Action? Funny how that freedom of speech infringement doesn't bother the usual suspects.

More to the point, another prolonger period of avoiding the invetitable before looking like it's been ordered because there's now no choice .

Uk households suffering pessimistic outlook levels not seen since 2009. Debt levels rising, unemployment rising across all ages.

Well done Rachel and keir

It was a complete mess of a scheme anyway. eg Norfolk didn't actually ask for the elections to be "postponed" yet had been told by Government it would be "postponing" their elections.

It always seemed a scheme that had potential to bite them on the backside

There was no way to make it look acceptable to cancel elections

It made sense in its own terms but the political optics were very poor.

Apparently so. Even more embarrassing is that the Senior Barrister leading the country didn't seem able to spot that there were any legal issues with postponing the elections.

As well as any legal issues, the political optics as @Bromptonaut mentioned were awful.
I despair of politicians ( of all persuasions) at times who can't seem to understand how bad their decisions will make them look on some issues
