Watched a rerun of the Red v Blue "debate". They seemed to agree on a fair few things but worded it differently so as to appear "different".

Both had something to say on decency and respect etc but only one of them demonstrated it, and that wasn't Sunak. Starmer, generally, kept schtum when Rishi was speaking. Rishi, on the other hand, blathered on and on when Sir K was talking.

Sunak seems to love the word "surrender" and Starmer informed the world that "his Dad was a toolmaker".

Sunak also came over as somewhat of a bully, Starmer said, several times, that it's time politicians went back to service. Serving the populace.

Sunak couldn't counter that only a few hundred immigrants would be sent to Rwanda, at great cost, under the current deal.

Starmer intends to beat the trafficking gangs by international cooperation, something he did with terrorists. To me a better option than Sunak's Rwanda non-solution that is very costly when it's only going to solve maybe 400 cases out of the 50,000 illegal immigrants since Sunak took office.

Neither will be getting my vote for the reasons outlined in a previous post on this forum.

I'm still looking forward to several visits to the UK each year in the future but, as I've said before, I won't be coming back to live.
