Gonna get ready for the boring reponses to this by getting a strong drink for myself.
I was so happy to have Trump our on his ear and replaced with boring Biden, and it is great to not have to wake up to the latest update on what stupid thing he’d done today…
But it seems Biden running a competent administration, or at least not a blatently corrupt one just allows all the good things to be drowned out by the never ending firehose of crazy from the other side.
I have no doubt should labour win the next election the same thing will happen, any positive news will be buried with yelling about immigrants and how Starmer is putting soya sauce in the water to make everyone gay
Wonder if he’s tried being less boring?
I’d take boring every day over the current ‘exciting’ shitshow of a government. I don’t need headline grabbing antics, just a government that actually gets on with running a country would be nice.
Ok. Ineffective.
Emulate Blair is the only way to win is what I keep hearing, but ignore the charm, likability (in the 90s) and excitement aspect?
Kier we don’t want you. We want an actual socialist.
People seem to think politics should be like a version of a tv show. Right now, I couldn’t care how boring a leader is, so long as they have standards, know what they are doing and just get on and run the country in a fair and just way.
If you want someone who you can go for a beer with, give a mate a call, and let sensible people run the country
This knob end runs Labour like his own personal dictatorship
Better than Corbyn but not going to win outright. Best we can hope for is a coalition to push PR through
Of course he is fucking boring! No leadership. A weak politician. Show balls! No way labour wins anything thing serious with him. Omg!
Stop being boring, shadow cabinet tells Keir Starmer
C’mon, eat a sandwich wrong! Fucking do something you boring pile of wretched garbage.
May you live in interesting times is a curse not a blessing. I’ll take safe and “boring” in these turbulent times. Soothe the situation and stabilise things.
“Stop being boring”, shadow cabinet tells Keir Starmer.
Stop being boring and we wont have to
Boring or Boris the liar Johnson.
I’ll take boring.
Wear sunnies 😎
Why do MPs so often act like teenagers?
Yes, politics is boring. It should be. You’re supposed to be engaged in the serious work of running a country, not entertaining yourself with petty drama.
Politics should be boring, policy should tick over with 1% improvements.
stop being boring and become more left wing.
I’ll take boring over our brainworm infested syphilis spreading PM
I’ll take someone boring, responsible & just generally more qualified over a celebrity buffoon with a terrible history of lying cheating scheming and just generally being an awful human being.
