Older age isn't necessarily a negative factor in leadership, but I know what you're saying. However, I can't deal with the fact that I'm 43 and don't feel like a grown up, so does that mean our Prime Minister feels the same way about himself? I can't square that circle, y'know?

I don't know about Sunak specifically, but generally the types of people who succeed at politics have way too much unjustified self-confidence to introspect that much.

I'm 53 and manage 20 people and I've never grown up. Other people hit 30 and act like they are 80.
