Rafeal Behr on an unfortunate silence:

#KeirStarmer 'can talk about #NHS reform, green investment, ambitious housebuilding targets... He can diagnose grave problems & prescribe solutions in many areas, steering tactfully away from the hardest issue.

But when it comes to delivering on those promises, he will find the body politic scarred & weakened by the years of #Brexit malpractice. A symptom of how deep the syndrome goes is [his] reluctance to call it by its name!'

Brexit ruined Britain’s appetite for revolution. That makes Starmer’s job harder

It’s not just the NHS where Labour faces an uphill struggle. The party has lost its willingness to confront difficult choices, says Guardian columnist Rafael Behr

👆 Meanwhile, facts and realities will simply go on being facts and realities. [Canute intended to show that EVEN A KING can't hold back the tide...so that we didn't have to!]

Starmer, IMO, is just
meandering in thick fog: it may or may not work...
