This is Starmer doing well on the world stage. Imagine Johnson would have made a 'whiff-whaff' or 'slanty-eyed' remark; Truss would still be obsessing on disgraceful cheese imports.

Growing up in the 70s, at school we were bombarded by details of The Holocaust. Then there were all the movies. As a young man I though "sheesh - enough already, we get it!"
