Think the difference between that speech and anything Starmer offered is that there is a very clear direction of where he wants to go and what he wants the country to be, which has been pretty absent from politics for a long time (and is absent from other party platforms, tho not election season)

Every private conversation in Westminster: "Well the triple lock obviously has to go at some point". Every commentator on Burnham: "completely mad to propose getting rid of triple lock - political suicide".

For someone that had never been a backbench MP, and who broadly treated backbench MPs with at best indifference and at worst contempt during his time as leader, I'm not that surprised at all though I'd hoped he might actually have a crack at it (who knows, might have even enjoyed it?)

Agree and reading Starmer's statement it's infuriating how his sense of moral superiority has stayed intact despite everything.

I think this is essentially gifting the seat to Zack Polanski if he decided to stand, and it’s probably the point. He’s salty lmao

The “ring 999” thing hits the point so well. Hospital generally the worst place for someone with dementia, but no other option in so many cases. My nan cares for my grandad who is 6 years into a dementia diagnosis, and she does absolutely everything she can to keep him out of hospital

Like Andy is doing well, very intimate feeling open speeches. Objectively, he is a good communicator and feels personable, but this should be what you expect of your head politician surely. How did Keir get to his position (and why on earth does he now have a faction). Who honestly wants that back

Dr Dan @dpdormouse.bsky.social · 29/07/2026
Ofc it is not all comms but I am just in awe not so much of how much better a communicator Andy is but how awkward and bad Keir was

Like she is repeatedly wrong on oil, she’s wrong on net zero, she’s wrong on prison early release. She says anything she thinks will get her a good sound bite (ofc she’s leader of the opposition that’s her main aim) but she definitely knows a good deal of what she comes out with is garbage

Find this maddening because part of her “fights for what she believes in” and “doesn’t care what people think” brand is being demonstrably wrong (and knowingly so, she’s not an idiot)

And if you want to know why Darren Grimes specifically is backing Reform, just ask any gay man who was politically active around a decade ago about him sliding into their DMs desperately asking how he can make a name of himself.

All Labour really have to do is not be hated and they will be in government again. Problem Starmer had is that he really really was hated

Largely because those who don’t want reform really do not want reform and will tactically vote to keep them out

I’m of the opinion we will have a lab-lib government or a lab minority government at the next GE. Really think reform’s ability to get a majority under FPTP is overplayed
