I was making the point that the speech really hit the spot and that even an arch political enemy like Harriet Harmon could stand there and give it full some and generous praise.

If she can bring herself to do it then it’s a pity others can’t and to bring up little old ladies dying of cold this winter is just ridiculous.

Harmon made a very good speech which I also pointed out but should I balance that with political points scoring?

I think not.

I also think Starmer made a good speech and has done this twice where in my opinion he’s bettered Liz Truss’s lectern effort the morning after the death.

The post was supposed to be about the speeches and tributes but of course it had to be hijacked.

Interesting that Corbyn hasn’t made a speech ( to my knowledge)

Slaps self on hand for going off on tangent!
Surely you realise by now Mick, we love to twist up your thread and go off tangent lol. I just had a funny feeling you’d react the same when i saw this thread going differently.
