Two years is a long time away.
Starmer is not stupid.
He knows very well that the current strategy is all about posturing and positioning for the battle that is to come.
And he doesn't want to give Sunak any ammunition with which to beat him over the head with. That is why he is talking about reforming the House of Lords and stuff like that. Nothing that can stick.
He knows that things can turn on their heads very quickly. Especially now.
And he also knows that the opposition doesn't win an election. Governments lose them.
This is the time to keep your powder dry.
But all he's worried about are those that voted for Brexit. What about the rest of them.
I've said it before. If I was still living in the UK I would have nobody I could vote for. There must be millions of people who feel the same way.
I've never been convinced that Starmer isn't a political idiot nor that he was ever a true remainer.
With Sunak and Truss the Tories have reached the dregs of the barrel and that's saying something after Johnson. If Starmer could not outwit these two then there is little hope.
Say Starmer goes along with the "I'll make Brexit work" ridiculous slogan. Say he gets elected. Two years down the line, the UK is in considerably deeper trouble than they are now, what happens next? Brexit can never possibly work. His only chance is to cancel the legislation that has been implemented between now and the next election plus reversing all the catastrophic measures already in place. Even that won't be enough. So, at the next election he'll lose and the Tories will be in power for another twenty years.
Starmer is only interested in becoming PM. He has no interest in the good of the British people.
