Well, a one legged blind donkey would do a better job than the current shower, and he is by no means that unfortunate.

My thoughts too curtaintwitcher. So easy to tell people what they want to hear without evidence of any plan as to how it might be achieved (which a lot of them wouldn’t want to hear).

I can't vote for him when he swerved the question several times of "What is a woman?" and then later said "Transwomen have cervixes". He needs a biology lesson.

I tend to agree with Curtaintwitcher that he comes across as fickle and indecisive. However I do like Rachel Reeves.

Can't take any notice of anything that man says. He is determined to get Labour into Downing Street and will say whatever he thinks will get the votes needed.
As a result, he comes across as fickle, indecisive and ethereal. You cannot take seriously anything he says.
I still have that image of him sitting outside a 'greasy spoon' cafe with a large white mug of tea in front of him, and wearing no tie. He looked distinctly uncomfortable!

I missed it so had a hunt on youtube. The link is below if you want to see the actual speech before making up your mind. It starts about 4 minutes in.
