The article humorously analyzes Starmer's recent struggles and escalating 'drama' as he navigates political pressure. It critiques his responses to controversies surrounding hospitality gifts, expenses, and even Arsenal football.
With the best glasses donor money can buy, surely Starmer can see that this week has been a total disasterWhen the only recent PM to have worse approval ratings is Liz Truss, one hopes for a rethink. But he’s not proving to be a natural at this, is he?were a celebrity, this week we’d be looking for the black hole in his publicist’s brain. Alas, these are mildly testing times for anyone who bought into the always ridiculous idea of No Drama Starmer .
I sympathise with his football security issue but can’t quite keep a straight face over the hammy melodrama of the statement: “… never going to an Arsenal game again because I can’t accept hospitality is pushing it a bit far”. We could be mere days away from an explanation that accepting £4,000-worth of Taylor Swift tickets off the Premier League is a basic human right.
I’m finding the angles on this quite hard to keep up with, but the general vibe of his No 10 operation is the sort of snakepit you may expect to find in the Kuntsevo Dacha 15 minutes after Stalin was discovered on the shagpile. I would even go so far as to say it could rival a breakfast television studio.
