RT by @Brendandonn: This blows a hole in Starmer’s plan of getting through the GE by making Eurosceptic noises while hoping Remainers will vote for him anyway. Well done Sadiq Khan. Any “honest and mature discussion” can only lead back to the option of rejoining the EU. @acgrayling

RT by @Brendandonn: It’s difficult to imagine anyone looking at the headline and saying“That’s just what I was thinking.” Except that the headline did appear in The Telegraph and was obviously accusing “lefties” of something or other. So it may have struck a chord with some readers.

RT by @Brendandonn: These will only be marginal improvements. Many of its supporters of course hope Labour will pursue a more ambitious European policy once in government. That very much remains to be seen.

RT by @Brendandonn: Very few people are in favour of the death penalty for minor crimes. If you are against the death penalty, then almost by definition the people you don’t want it applied to will normally have committed horrible crimes.

RT by @Brendandonn: Unfortunately, it is not outlandish to expect that an outlandish political party will continue to mount outlandish attacks on its major opponent in the outlandish hope that it can avoid a crushing defeat in the next General Election.

RT by @Brendandonn: The Sun opposes the death penalty for British murderers but attacks Starmer for trying to stop the execution of foreign murderers. Does The Sun think different standards should apply to Britons and to foreigners? Is there perhaps a clue here about why The Sun so dislikes the EU?

RT by @Brendandonn: Brexit has failed.Rejoining the EU will be an immensely challenging task for the British political establishment. They hope to finesse this challenge by pretending to themselves that SM/CU is a realistic and relatively painless halfway house. It is likely to be neither.

RT by @Brendandonn: The legal and political complications of the UK’s trying to “rejoin the single market” as a stand-alone project are a reminder that rejoining the EU is the most logically coherent solution to the manifold problems posed by Brexit. The supposed SM/CU option is no silver bullet.

It is sometimes assumed that “rejoining the single market” will be a relatively painless compromise for the UK to adopt as a way of mitigating the economic damage caused by Brexit. It will be much more complicated than that.

RT by @Brendandonn: Sunak is well advised not to have a plan. His party would force him rapidly to revise any plan he came up with to make it even crazier. Sunak and his party are now condemned by Brexit to lurch from one short term expedient to its opposite on a weekly basis,

RT by @Brendandonn: Like many politicians at party conferences, Sunak was telling the members what they wanted to hear. For some reason members of the Conservative Party like hearing that next year their party’s government will be even more battily erratic than it was last year. Strange but true.

There is a reference at the beginning of the speech to the “challenge of Brexit.” If he thinks Brexit is a only a challenge rather than a disaster I would have preferred him to say nothing on the subject.

RT by @Brendandonn: Starmer’s phrase “the challenge of Brexit” was probably chosen after much deliberation. It allows Brexiters to regard Brexit as something bracing and Remainers to regard Brexit as something damaging. As such, it fully reflects the Starmerite conception of leadership on Europe.

RT by @Brendandonn: But the continuing spontaneous and steady drift of public opinion towards rejoining the EU, without any political leadership in this direction, suggests that the electorate does not regard the question of Brexit as being a dead parrot, except in a formal sense.
