I set up a new Wi-Fi router this morning. Even for an hour or so while the Wi-Fi was down, it became noticeable how much we use it and how many gadgets we have connected. Ten gadgets in total, not counting granddaughter's phone which has to be connected next time she comes.
A new Wi-Fi router hasn't made the news any more encouraging though - I spotted that almost immediately after logging onto the interweb.
For example, the media still waffle on as if Keir Starmer merely has to pull his socks up to turn things around. As if another eight months of his mendacious bungling could be some kind of learning curve for Starmer and the horribly useless Cabinet blockers he picks with such unerring accuracy.
Keir Starmer issued 8-month warning as PM faces 'serious moment of peril'
The Prime Minister has been given an eight-month warning to turn the government around or else Labour could face a "serious moment of peril". The stark time limit has been issued by a number of Labour MPs and trade union leaders following the departure of two senior party figures. Sir Keir Starmer's 'phase two' of government kicked off with a major reshuffle following the sudden resignation of Angela Rayner, and then Lord Peter Mandelson.

I thought it might have been last May rather than the next, but then I'm looking on as a dissatisfied voter rather than an embarrassed MP.
Not only has Two Tier to pull his socks up he has to do so in a way that reduces the danger from Reform and the threats from within his own Party.
That's a tough thing to do and not covered in the Bureaucrats' Book of Handy Processes. An ex-Prime Minister walking perhaps?
Starmer is a winker, a blinker,
A stinker, a kinker, a jinker,
But no thinker, he.
At least he's safe from assassination: who'd bother?
Despite being illegal and not recommended, one of the risks with assassination is that you might get someone worse and more dedicated to the 'cause'.
DJ - quite a few people are predicting his resignation, but sorting out this mess can't be an attractive proposition.
dearieme - good point, who'd bother? He's probably very safe.
DJ - I agree, there is a strong chance of getting someone worse and more dedicated to the 'cause'. Ed Miliband for example.
