Starmer doesn't have very long, and he seems to be trying to accelerate his relocation out of government.
- gadders 1y agoI think he is stuck, like the Prime Minister of France. He has a party that won't tolerate spending cuts of the required scale, and an economy that can't tolerate further tax raises. He also has the charisma of a wet sock, which doesn't help.
- TimorousBestie 1y agoSo another thirty years of Tory rule (or worse) because Labor did a dog that caught the car. Hurray.
- pqtyw 1y agoOr Reform... considering that Conservatives are third in the polls currently. If there were elections now according to the current projections Tories would get less seats than the Liberal Democrats.
- TimorousBestie 1y agoYeah, I consider Reform worse.
- jen20 1y agoStarmer has longer than Trump all things being equal - he doesn't even need to call an election until July 5th 2029. He also has a massive majority, making a government collapse by other means highly unlikely.
