Keir Starmer interview in Time Magazine a couple months ago.

In another part, he says: “I’m conscious that we’ve got a lot to learn internationally as a Labour party so we study intensely the US and particularly the journey of Biden into office because the Democrats are our sister party.”

Country first, party second.

I love it when tory tries to act like a tough, uncompromising badass given that he's so thin skinned he used to get his staff to send moany texts to fucking Owen Jones whenever he wrote a milquetoast hit piece about him in the Guardian.
