“Step back from the rhetoric Terry and lift the blinkers”
Not rhetoric, open your eyes and take a look at what is happening, taxes crushing NS O&G, Starmer is like a rabbit caught in the headlights pandering to Milbrain and rest of the left wing ESG Labour lot and pandering to muslin vote while disgracing the UK on the world stage and making Britain a laughing stock. All to try and save his job at the expense of the country.
“Starmer has failings but he's a decent person. As was Sunak and Major and May“
Starmer a decent person, REALLY! Took over £100,000 in freebees and lot more if you include Victoria Sponger all tax free while taxing farmers to suicide, taking away the winter fuel allowance, taxing a lot of small business out of existence while causing a lot of job losses especially for the young, lack of jobs, many thousand NS out of their jobs, etc, etc. Also got himself a very large pension and had a special act of Parliament to exempt him (just him) from the taxes the rest of us have to pay. Add in he is a pathological liar, lied time and time again to get into power and just keeps lying. What about all of his connections to those representing the Chagos Islands, his mate Philippe Sands legal team was paid at least £8.3 million from the Mauritian state. How about his connections to those lawyers going after our Veterans in their 70s, some at least 3 times (after being proved innocent) and still hounding our heroes.
As for Sunak, ask anyone hit by IR35, first he subsidised IT workers from India, made it a lot easier to get visas, gave them tax breaks, also increase the scope of IR35 putting many UK workers and small companies out of business especially in IT. All while his family company INFOSYS hooves up a lot of this work as well as many new Government contracts, his family is worth billions but not enough, he wanted more. Then take a look at his investments in Moderna while pushing through great amounts of funding for their COVID Vaccine and failing to declare his interest.
“So no political bias here”
Your whole post is nothing but political bias, you said
“Particularly with the Orange unpredictable narcissist dunce across the pond”
Not biased then!
“Being PM / running a country is a tough old job, even for the most able.”
One thing that is clear is that Starmer is the least able PM this country has ever had.
“Oh to have all the vision / expertise and self belief of the keyboard warriors on here”
Take a look in the mirror.
“Careful what you wish for”
I think you will find a lot of people who voted/wished for a labour government will find this most poignant.
