You'd have to be completely unhinged to look at an election result like that and not think that maybe some things had been got wrong, so contrition is just a basic acknowledgement of reality... followed by a long list of all the people who aren't welcome in his idea of a 'broad' church.

It'd be interesting to know how many voters register it as a leading issue.

Speaking of unhinged looks at the election result.

Has there ever been a politician more lacking in self-awareness?

Truss is surely worse for lacking in self awareness than Trump.
Every single interview that Truss does, the interviewer is just taking the piss out of her. Tbf, I think the only way she could survive is by building up some alternate reality.

The former editor of The Sun, re the Telegraph's obsession with Rayner and the value of their (at best) 'opinions':

Nonsense paper.

It occasionally surprises me when it prints something vaguely rational and/or balanced, but it's largely abandoned news as such for campaigning opinion pieces and agendas that mostly would be at home in GB News. A great pity.

The Sun loves jumping on bandwagons.
The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

My reference was to the Telegraph. Amusement comes from an ex-Sun editor calling out the current Telegraph as being ridiculous.

Anyway, "Bring Back Boris!"
I assumed that this was a humorous photoshop job, but apparently not. Giving sacks of potatoes a bad name.

This is how I remember the Telegraph - this was on the EEC referendum, and note the lack of screaming headlines.

Perhaps we ought to run a sweepstake on how long they'll stay together, the more he looks like shit and dwindles into babbling irrelevance.

Depends on her contract.

I suspect that if she were happy to take and children/babies off his hands, (so he can start his book on Shakespeare), he'll lose interest in her very rapidly, though OTOH, now he is a sack of potatoes with no relevance and diminishing earning power, he might not have as many women willing to make babies with him.

Dorries would be very willing but is about 30 years too late.

That's better. Let's hope his record on following up these words is better than the follow-up to 'integrity, professionalism and accountability at every level', even if he's given the boot by the Tory loons.

It’s almost like it’s easy to be responsible when you don’t have to go out and defend a track record and decisions not everyone agrees with.
I don’t really understand why so few people get this.

What is mysterious to me is why politicians in power feel compelled to be actually dishonest in the first place. Being more relaxed and eloquent out of power is less mysterious.
The "honest John politician" has been incredibly effective in Scotland. They excused a string of total incompetencies with the "it's really hard but we tried our best and we will take some learning from this" angle, and it is still only just now starting to wear thin.

There also, incidentally, seems to be more engagement with longer form interviews up there, as opposed to the relentless sound bite politics here. One thing I'll say for the Scots is they are quite engaged with politics.
