Not very clever from Cleverly

Not very clever from Cleverly

I was planning on doing a thread on whether we’d see a crossover on Betfair between James Cleverly and Bobby J Robert Jenrick however that’s not going to happen because in James Cleverly’s role in the Chagos Islands deal, another disastrous legacy of the brief tenure of Liz Truss. Looking at how Betfair has reacted from Cleverly’s Kemi-kaze Badenoch style approach we are going to see a crossover again between Cleverly and Badenoch. I think there may now be a…

A stunning achievement by Starmer

A stunning achievement by Starmer

As a football fan Sir Keir Starmer must feel like Erik ten Hag a man under pressure because things are going sub-optimal for him. Whilst this isn’t a voting intention poll what it does show that after not even three months in power the public would prefer the Tories who they booted out of office after fourteen years. People shouldn’t read too much into this poll, first of all there’s fifty-seven months left for Starmer to turn this around and…
