don't worry, this malady can be cured by following british politics for a month or two

A month or two? Seeing the age verification ordeal changed my mind in a matter of 30 seconds.

I think we were worse than America when we had the conveyer belt of PMs

It's a little tradition that we've sadly stopped. Everyone in the country could have had to go by now.

feel like the conveyor might restart any time soon.

Starmer seems to think AI is gonna make all the Torry policies he's continuing actually work. Hard to predict anything, but if nothing happens between now and the AI bubble bursting, then I think the resulting market crash will be what finally gives him the boot.

Oh yeah his obsession with AI is so weird. They were going on about this university supercomputer they've built that's going to apparently run everything and then as per usual we've heard nothing since.

Labour absolutely suck at PR, not that the AI was ever actually going to do anything useful but if you introduce it you should keep going on about it. Otherwise it's just radio silence.

Was that the one with fresh lettuce on it?

Just listen to Boris Johnson talk. Dude's head is so far up his ass he can taste his own hair.
