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.
A bit like Starmer you mean?
He's in the same mould as John Major.
They are bedfellows in terms of 10+ of levels of boringness. 10 being max. But we did need dull after the sick pantomime of the previous 15 years.
I fundamentally disagreed with the politics of Major but I think he was far more competent, articulate, statesmanlike and credible than Starmer.
Which says a lot about Keef really. And is his problem in a nutshell....as he said himself, he is not very good at politics.
