Has he gone yet?

[Duffers]

That's pretty much how I see it Duffers. If the focus of attention was on Farage in the same way it is on Starmer then the narrative would be very different. I believe that the political media got used to the stardom and headline grabbing broadcasts when the country was going mad for Brexit and haven't been able to come off the attention drug yet. They do love a drama, whether real or perceived.

Does make you yearn back for the days when politicians were boring men and women who just quietly got on with the job.
