Yeah. I don't disagree.
Only thing I'd say is idk where you live, but it always strikes me how different perceptions are between my social group and those I know and the type of perceptions I read about in national focus groups or those reported from marginal seats The papers always visit Nuneaton as a "bellweather" - I think I would hate to live somewhere like that, would find it very hard, but it's in these little towns that elections are won and lost in. That's who Starmer is trying to talk to with his Captain Competency impression, not you or me.
