Keir Starmer

Should have stuck with the 2017 manifesto and backed leaving the EU and they would have done better, still lost because of Corbyn being unelected, but still better.
 
Saw an interview Wrong-Daily gave. Christ, she's dismal. Got the charisma of a concrete block.

This is where our society Is going wrong imo.

Theres a lot of good politicians who aren't media friendly purely because of their perceived media personalities. Behind the scenes they are the sharpest minds In parliament. The cult of personality is destroying this nation, but thats another debate.
 
Ask them, they'll give you the same answer as Corbyn got.
It's too late telling everyone that everything is shit, because it clearly isn't, and these 'Poor' voted for Johnson because
they are not rooted in bankrupt socialist policies, most have jobs, and aspiration, and didn't believe the fairy tales.
You took the words right out of my mouth.

That's the age we live in and have done for 40 years, like it or not. Had we had wall-to-wall TV & radio coverage in 1945, Atlee might not have won as convincingly as he did.

I don't think he'd have won at all if he had the same media "scrutiny".

I don't agree that Long-Bailey is the sharpest of minds but agree with the general point.

It won't be long before we've got Ant and Dec running the country.

Starmer seems the best of the bunch from what little I've seen so far, speaks common sense and seems electible.
