And some of it is unfair.

No question.

Some of it is more deserved.

Keir Starmer, for whatever reason, is despised by the public of this country, by much of the population.

He is despised.

He is a massive electoral liability.

And the Labour Party have to basically make a decision.

Do they want to stop a reform government or don't they?

Because on the basis of all the evidence we have, Keir Starmer is not the man to do it.

But they're in a burning building right now.

They're in a burning building and they're going to burn and die within that building.

So the choice is, do you grab the hose and give yourself a chance?

That's the question the Labour Party, can it be bothered?

Is it willing to simply acquiesce, acquiesce to defeat?

Because that is what the Labour Party does far too often.

They basically accept because they do not very often have the guts, because they do not have the will to power that the Conservative Party does.

But at this point, anyone would be.

But what is the vision?

We had some briefing overnight saying the Prime Minister is going to prove himself to be less technocratic and less legalistic.

I mean, I'm sorry, a phrase about old dogs and new tricks comes to mind.
