Arguably Starmer has won Tony Blair's 'fourth term' as Prime Minister, just as poor Joe Biden won Barack Obama's 'third term'.
ReplyDeleteIt would seem that resurrection is a feature of modern politics. I wonder if David Cameron will become the new Conservative leader? He's wet enough.
DJ - yes it's already looking like Blair's fourth term. Amoral bandwagon politics from the off doesn't look good.
ReplyDeleteCameron's hat could be in the ring for a new Conservative leader. Interesting times unfortunately.
Safe Place to Invest is a big claim. Much of the rest of her speech was about "Crowding In" investment, a process otherwise called Arm Twisting.
ReplyDeleteInstead of sending Barclaycard some money this month, I decided to sort things out by telling a group of wrong 'uns that some women can have penises, shedding crocodile tears over Gaza, and putting a little windmill in our front garden.

decnine - and sometimes the arm twisting comes with huge sweeteners, the huge sweeteners being huge amounts of our money.

ReplyDeleteAs Sam says, Strummer's already a puppet, like O'Biden is!
Scrobs - didn't take long did it? Like vultures waiting for their turn at the carcass.
