I see starmer's leadership of the labour party and subsequent general election victory as being like a road traffic accident. Things seem to be happening in slow motion. You can see it coming and you know it's going to hurt. Excellent article.

A fair assessment, I'd say Tom. Starmer has proven himself repeatedly to be a complete tosser.

THat was utterly extraordinary, and suggested a total lack of self-examination or criticism.
