    I'm no fan of Starmer, I didn't vote Labour, but I am glad to see the back of the Tories and I really hope this Labour government can actually make meaningful, positive changes in the lives of the country. 14 years of decline is too much for any country and we need to start rebuilding
  • Anyone standing for labour would have won, this was a get the tories out vote

    Difficult colour, red, however, I think that Lady Starmer does manage to look very elegant in it.
  • Americans understand. We are weary as well. It would be nice to put service back into politicians here.
