In the 404 years since this nation first began having PMs, there have been 55 men and 3 women who have taken on the role.
These have included the: weak, the hopeless, the inconsequential, the hapless, the inefficient, the bigoted and the utterly despicable.
I cannot see that Starmer can claim to be better than any of the other 57.
He is surely condemning Labour to a minimum period of a quarter of a century in outer darkness.
This upside of his leadership has to be balanced off against the destruction of the UK as a viable, economically competent, crime-free, relatively wealthy nation.
