So what are you Americans going to do about him??

I agree he doesn’t speak for the vast majority of the USA. He’s detached from reality, at best demented and at worst insane. So what are the vast majority of Americans going to do about him?

I watched some of that “speech”. He’s quite insane, or at best, deluded. Lies, distortions, rambling statements which bear no relation to the truth. When will the GOP decide they’ve had enough?

Good. We should be trading with our near neighbours instead of flying in good s from the other side of the world. Madness.

Starmer must change course - or Labour must change their leader.

The cost of total nationalisation right now would be horrific! Even buying out shareholders with a compulsory 1p share! Remember also, while capitalism creates many of our problems, we’re ensured to it - our pensions and savings are in stocks, shares.

I wonder how many actually watched her interview with Keunsberg this morning?
Calm, reasoned, strong enough to ignore Keunsberg’s constant interruptions,intro set a context of rising immigration.
Labour should more capital from Brexit, but to say she’s chasing Reform votes is nonsense.

Andy Burnham can’t atm.
Others will start to appear. What a mess. Let’s hope it’s notthe tories under de piffle all over. Frankly, Starmer lacks the vision and the backbone to match Labour values. A challenge is inevitable.

I’d say Starmer’s mistake was appointing Mandy in the first place. The Tory press are always going to sniff out any sleaze or tax or affairs or donations.
Starmer came in promising change and to clean up the Tory sleaze. He needs to be smarter - whiter than white.
