Just would be nice if the most powerful person in the country could actually set out some sort of plan of action for once, rather than just wait around for someone else to do it.

Starmer isn’t able to make a decision and wants to sit on the fence again? This isn’t even news anymore, it’s a baseline expectation.

That will happen either way, but if that’s what it takes to stop Trump getting what he wants AND stop the rest of the world becoming the new Syria / Iraq then yes, the manchild needs to be placated with whatever words might work.

Trump is a cunt for publicly airing messages sent to him in confidence. Everyone knows about his ego and what he thinks of brown people. Attempting to placate him in private to stop the first act of World War 3 is a reasonable action, and I refuse to dogpile on any world leader for trying their best to deal with that toddler.
