Even more offensive than Stupid Boris dealing with Stupid Covid is Stupid Starmer pretending his support of stupid government is "for the good of the country". It's not. It's for the good of Keir Starmer, seeming decent and responsible. He's not. He's ghastly.

I think he might be bigging up Boris in the hope that he will make it to the next election, thinking he can beat him easier than a replacement.

Spot on Honey.

Starmer is so out of touch with public and so Boris is a total fuck up because he don't mind being control from the higher ups. I don't trust lawyer's the same way I don't trust MSM.

Yes I find Starmer more repugnant than shameless Boris. Talking piously to us like a monk out of nothing but self interest. We need a real opposition badly.

Where is Nick Clegg when we need him?

Censoring people on social media.

Reform Party is the only realistic opposition I can think of, the media will silence them during election time.

It's a difficult job being the official Opposition party, but you really have to avoid two things if you want to seem responsible and authentic:

1. Don't just keep using hindsight to say what you wouldn't have done;
2. Don't just keep saying 'we'd have done the same thing but done more of it and sooner'.

And sadly all that Starmer does is those two things. It's lazy, it's cynical, it's cowardly and it's utterly unconvincing as a vote winner to all but the party faithful.

Also he does not challenge Boris.

A real opposition would demand no lockdowns, no Covid passports, no pushing on vaccines but have them if people want them, no mandates and no masks to be a legal requirement.

I think that Starmer would stand a better chance of against Sunak than Boris. Remember the red wall voters voted for Boris not for the tories. They probably hate traditional tories, which is what Sunak is. only concerned about the GDP and helping big business. Also I don't think that a lot of people would accept an asian as the British Prime Minister.

As for the Reform party, this is basically tory light. A new party can never make an impact on the electorate, as the Greens and UKIP have shown, 2 mps between them, and the ukip was a tory that changed parties.

People voted to get Brexit done. Mrs May didn't trigger it, Boris did but he has been a disaster ever since.

I have no problem with Conservative government, I have lived in USA during the Reagan, George Bush and George Bush Jr era's. I have also lived in Canada which is very Liberal. It was nothing like it is now a shit show.

I don't think Indian people suffer the same discrimination as others, do they?

No, they are normally praised and accepted because they normally the highest earners in jobs and savvy businessman/women. Many Asians own corner shops because you can make an annual fortune.
