You guys go through PMs like toilet paper and we have no one in power willing to get rid of one Alzheimer’s riddled asshole who excels at fucking up.

People will struggle to remember Keir Starmer's name or who he was in 15 years like the way people can't keep the random, unimportant placeholder kings that ruled over England and other countries in the annals of history who, while technically extremely powerful, were too much of a weathervane to the prevailing winds of power of the time to be memorable in any way except as an empty vessel of state power with a nametag on it.
