Starmer's best chance of a political come back might be wielding anti-American sentiment, if Trump doesnt get bored and move away from persistently insulting us and the rest of NATO.
Trump is probably the biggest weakness for any Conservative Party outside of the US, just need to look at Carney and Albanese.

A great way to win back the Labour vote which has drifted to Reform too. Farage has been noticeably quiet regarding his hero Trump lately.

The last few weeks have been shocking. I am on the fence as to whether Trump has an agenda or is actually mad. I think he does not care about the truth and is actually keener to keep Putin onside than NATO.
I do agree with Trump that Europe has not paid their share for NATO but this is because i think military expenditure ultimately causes more problems that not. We are better spending this money on hospitals and education. Between them , Putin and Trump have broken the system. We now have to spend more of our GDP of re-arming because of their ambition.
I do believe that Trump will thwart the Democrats in November. He will probably be dead by the next election but think the Republicans need to stay in power if they want to stay out of jail.

Trump can do one. Just **** the right off. Despicable man.
UK has ditched the Chagos deal.
He will be attacked for U-Turning again, but I bet that is a weight of Starmer's shoulders.
The only logic that ever made sense with this was that the US wanted us to do the deal in the first place, so I wonder if there is some rather cheesed off US top brass.

I thought I saw that a libdem MP ( not Ed Davey ) had said Trump can Fing do one on X .
Did I just imagine it ?

Have you a source for that? So far as I can see there's an agreement that needs to be ratified by parliament that's had some setbacks in the HOL.
The Labour faithful on here will say just about anything to excuse this bumbling bunch of incompetents we have as our government.
As soon as Starmer has announced his latest hairbrained scheme his flunkeys are out in force to support it. It can't be easy trying to defend the indefensible every time but as soon as they have given their approval, our gormless PM dumps his plans after "listening to the public". They then find themselves looking foolish having backed a dead horse. Again.
Just some examples of the now dead horses that people have put their names to supporting over the last few months. Might be wiser to wait before going out on a limb until this "government" has actually made one of their proposals into a law.
ID cards.
Removing juries.
No national inquiry into rape gangs.
Winter fuel payments.
Farmer's inheritance tax.
Can't remember anyone backing the Chagos Islands deal but going on recent examples I'm sure there would have been.

Regarding NATO forces in Afghan, it should be remembered that Denmark's contribition was considerable, for so small a country.
Former Canadian Olympic snowboarder and alleged drug kingpin Ryan Wedding has been arrested in Mexico and will be extradited to the US after years on the run, FBI Director Kash Patel has said.
Wedding, who had been on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list, is accused of running a transnational drug trafficking operation that moved tonnes of cocaine across international borders. Wedding, 44, was also wanted on murder charges.
Wedding is accused of running a vast drug trafficking operation responsible for importing some 60 metric tonnes of cocaine a year.
The organisation operated across North America, as well as several countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, and was also the largest supplier of cocaine to Canada, bringing in an estimated $1bn a year.
Before he was arrested, Wedding was accused of killing a federal witness in a case against him. Officials say he has also ordered the murders of several others.
Wedding is now facing a slew of felony charges, including witness tampering and intimidation, murder, money laundering and drug trafficking.
After being found guilty as is expected, his pardon by the Trumper will mean he'll be free before being imprisoned and able to take up his new position as head of the DEA.

There are no penguins in Greenland. All Penguins live in the southern hemisphere except one species from the Galapagos Islands.
Everyone knows there are no penguins in the Artic but there is also no one Presidential in the White House.
Wrong Pole but made me think...
