On an unrelated note: Can we ask Steve Grant for a plugin that removes any content posted on here that's directly copied and pasted from social media or chatgpt? Thanks. -

Well done for doing it properly. Yours is pretty much what I expected most on here to answer although maybe Starmer slightly higher. -

I didn't like Starmer at all but he did none of those things. -

Would you put him below Truss ? -

Anyone want a go at ranking 21st century PMs? Should be quite interesting I would have thought. All pretty bad by the way but some worse than others: 1 Sunak 2 Cameron 3 Brown 4 May 5 Starmer 6 Johnson 7 Blair 8 Truss -

Quite possibly. Any choices are going to piss off someone. It just so happened that a lot of the choices that Starmer made were ones I disagreed with and also he never even bothered trying to sell what he was trying to do or have some narrative that people could agree with. Many of his policies seemed totally random, reactionary and poorly thought through which is why he had so many uturns. Add to that his authoritarian streak and having an air of superiority whilst being rather poor and I can see why people had enough of him so quickly. -

Not at all. You can celebrate the removal of a terrible prime minister whilst also being mindful of what is to come. Both can be true. We didn't get much of that when Starmer was elected. I'm sure I don't have to remind you of the reactions from mainstream media and news personalities about adults in the room and the quiet being nice. -

Let's not forget Lord Alli in all this. Who will he give his spare wardrobe of clothes to now? -

Burnham will have a very difficult time trying to convince the parliamentary labour party that the only way to meaningfully improve things you will have to start with a bit more economic prudence. -
We won't be replacing him for 20 million. Likely 5-7 million and use the rest for finances.

And of course he may actually want to stay but we want to sell for the right price. We need to make sales and he is one that can give us the most amount of cash for the smallest hit to the team.

Agreed. At the moment it's looking like an unelected new PM in a couple of weeks with no plan announced, no 100 days and no team. -

I agree. I actually think that was the main thing. You can't say on the one hand that you take responsibility and the buck stops with you and then chuck everyone around you under the bus when things go wrong. -

It would be interesting to know if Starmer were to speak candidly if he actually thinks he has done much wrong over these last two years. I suspect he thinks he hasn't done much other than be trusting of advisors and it's other people and things that he hasn't taken responsibility for. -

Because many of their MPs made a huge deal out of it before and how they were going to do things differently. -
I see that woman is still doing her thing during the hydration break. I thought they'd have sacked her off after the England game. Even had a little feminist message at the end and wishing everyone a happy fathers day. Literally a parody.

I though Labour held themselves to a higher standard. They like to think they do anyway. -

Odd response. It's not some conspiracy to suggest that Starmer and his government have been involved with all of those things to a lesser or greater extent. Nothing to do with social media. -

Or the prime ministers wouldn't have resigned at the rate they have done. We all know why Ange said that and why she now won't repeat it despite this situation being identical.
