He likely would have preferred Jeremy Corbyn as PM.😲

It's hard to comment without knowing the context and what he actually said.

It was on GBNews.

Someone mentioned Paul Embery on a thread this week but I can’t find it now. He is an author and Trade Unionist. He was discussing the overuse of the term FarRight.

Tonight he was on TV and he said “ I detect very little goodwill for Starmer and this Government. I say that as a Labour member of 30 years. This is very unlike the public mood in 1997. It does not bode well.”

That really surprised me as I have been watching him for the last year or so and he is Labour through and through and I have never heard him say anything negative about them.
