@atomic It seems starmer will only leave if he is physically thrown out. Such is the sweetness of power to the politician.
@h4890 Starmer is on another level. I don't know of any Prime Minister in any country that would be holding on to the office under these circumstances.
@atomic I wonder how many more wrong turns he needs to take before he'll have a revolution in his own party?
@h4890 Farage - controlled opposition?

@charliebrownau @h4890 I can see why people are voting for Reform and I would do the same if I was a resident of the UK. But if the regime allows them to exist when the national elections happen, well then I would strongly suspect that they are in fact controlled opposition.
