Even Rishi Sunak seems like a relatable guy when you stand him next to Starmer. The latter seems totally inhuman, stilted, stiff and just plain bizarre. Part of this come from the fact that Starmer has the more difficult job here. He is the leader of a party that is (supposedly) based on the organised labour movement and which is supposed to stand for socialism, even Blairs reworded Clause 4 of the party constitution committed to "socialism". Starmers biggest problem stems from this point and it was the same problem Ed Miliband had as well, they've been told clearly by the ruling class that no serious reforms can actually be offered. They've also been told that they can't launch class based attacks on the Conservative Party or its leaders as that might stir things up too much. Essentially they've been told that they have to win using the formula of the 1990s, which is to appeal to the population on largely technocratic grounds of "competence" or "decency" or other such buzzwords that are rendered meaningless when you know Starmers actual record in office. In the 1990s you can just about get away with this if you have a Bill Clinton or a Tony Blair delivering this empty management speak because they were skilled enough actors to carry it off, as was Obama. Starmer is manifestly not good enough a performer to carry this off and he's also an extremely weak man. That's why Sunak walks all over him and Starmer looks like he's going to start crying. This is why some in the ruling class are looking to promote an even more repulsive character named Wesley Streeting to the big job asap because he seems to be the next "heir to Blair". This will fail too though as part of the reason why the Blair act worked was that you could spin the illusion of "prosperity" in the late 1990s and early 2000s, you can't do that now and no matter how good a bull shit artist you are you can't escape the fact the material conditions of the working class are being pushed relentlessly downwards. This is why, no matter what the result, the labour party is utterly bankrupt and finished as a political force. When you are the reformist party which can offer no reforms then it really is all over for you.

I've screamed this for years. The "regeneration" of Lime Street has been yet another failure for the city and a destruction of Liverpool's unique character. The Liverpool City Council should (LCC) is one of the most corrupt councils in Britain and has used the building work in Liverpool as a way to earn money on the sale of contracts. That's why we end up with plastic looking shite like this. https://www.liverpoolworld.uk/news/carbuncle-cup-liverpool-building-ugliest-in-uk-4676875
