If the last 4 years has taught me anything it's that stupidity and ignorance are in no sense disqualifiers for high office. Quite the reverse in fact.

Best comment on that thread is “to be fair Italy have shifted quite far to the right” :-)

I suspect it was a slip of the tongue and she meant Greece. She's not that stupid, just malign. I agree with JB, though - a big part of Trump's appeal to his voters is that he comes across as dumb like them.

Yes, while home secretary, she visited the Greek border with Turkey, where they have built a border fence along the Evros river. There was some claimed tie-in with people smuggling gangs operating in the UK.

All the Starmerites must be so proud of the govt's ambition and drive in addressing the social care problem....by announcing yet another report that kicks the can down the road to the next govt. What a bold way to use 5 years with a massive majority!

It's a tough one and an expensive one I imagine. The old policy Boston Box strikes again.

Tacit acceptance that they’re only expecting 1 term?

I’d imagine the tanking ratings will mean more difficult/transformative changes will follow onto the backburner.

They’ll now be tweaking around, seeking focus grouped popularity to get better ratings rather than affecting ‘change’.

As far as I can see only Milliband has got close to living up to his rhetoric.
