        Well said. While he’s not perfect, I’d imagine Starmer will be significantly different to the Tories.

          The fact that he won’t be distracted by right wing extremists in his own party is a good start.

          Within the labour party he is the right wing extremist.

          And I don’t think he’s likely to be too damaged by attacks on the left much either, certainly not until after the honeymoon period.

        Labour seems to be shifting further and further Right, not sure how much better they’ll be than the Tories. But for what it’s worth, I totally agree.

        So when Tories go back on promises it’s lying but when labour do it its reasonable pragmatism?
