As do a lot of politicians, unfortunately.
You saw the recent Spectator Summer Party where all the Labour politicians always turn up to kind of, you know, kiss the rings of the people in Paris.
I think Starmer went again.
And I just find that all very, even when I worked in the British press corps, when I worked in the lobby, I always found that very distasteful.
I thought you were a plain speaker, Alistair.
I went for the simpler description.
By the way, I'm not saying you weren't.
I'm just saying it was also sucking up.
I'm surprised, Alistair, that you're offering such a tame solution.
No, no, I'm going one by one.
But I just think it's so ridiculous that Lisa Nandy pulling off of X. It's like, oh, you know, I've got to leave this platform because it's become so toxic.
Well, you're the culture secretary.
Do something about it.
Don't just quit the platform.
Okay.
You know, this whole thing, you know, that meme, we're all trying to find the person who did this.
You're the regulator.
You're the British government.
Pulling off of X is just a weird thing to do.
The thing to do is actually exercise your muscle instead of going after pro-Palestine protesters in the streets and rounding up little old ladies and vicars.
