It is a turn up for the books when Starmer pulls out the Corbyn card to get out of a crisis.
He is the eternal bogeyman, perfect to frighten centre right labour members back in line.
To be fair, Corbyn has made himself look a right stupid wanker these last few weeks. He’s the gift that keeps on giving, and constantly proves why Starmer will probably win a dirty landslide
He’s not exactly the devil and not exactly the perfect angelic vision that each side makes him out to be.
All the talk of Starmer not having personality or leadership seemed to skim over me for the longest time and I thought he was the right man for the job. I liked the way he interviewed and I thought his career of ‘fighting the good fight’ made him just what we needed.
I’m not sure anymore. His handling of important topics recently has been lacklustre to say the least and, although I don’t really like the term, I’m seeing him as a ‘red Tory’ more and more.
