Blair has raised the alarm over the flaw at the heart of the Starmer project
When it all starts to go wrong for Keir Starmer, Tony Blair will at least be able to say that he sounded the alarm early. “People are elected on the basis that they are changemakers, because they’ve articulated a general vision for change,” he complained in an interview this week. “But what does that really mean, in specific terms?...

Opinion: SOS to Clinton and Obama: You Can End the Biden Nightmare after That Debate
I woke up yesterday morning and started making calls.I had a 7.30 p.m. appearance on CNBC and a question to answer on a loosely floated topic: Do debates matter any more? I dialed national and local reporters, strategists, analysts, campaign veterans, winners and losers, Republicans and Democrats alike.All had the same basic answer.
