Frances Ryan is probably one of the best and most consistent writers the Guardian has.
Its interesting how all the starmer fans have gone quiet in the comments. Even they are starting to realise how they've been duped by red tie wearing tories.
Its a very interesting question
The presumption is that they are front loading bad news so its all good news closer to elections. But I don't know if that will work if the Americans manage to cause to full blown trade war.
Starmer is doing exactly what he was put in charge to do, support the status quo for billionaires and the Israel project.
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
