Opinion: History will not remember Keir Starmer kindly … if it remembers him at all

 Claire Bullivan criticises UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer for his awkward presence on the world stage, lacking charisma and conviction. He is ineffective in international meetings, including with US President Donald Trump, and is overshadowed by other leaders such as Boris Johnson.

Bullivan questions Starmer’s legitimacy as Prime Minister, noting that he did not win a majority of votes and is governing by default. She calls for his removal due to his perceived mediocrity and inability to lead the country effectively.

There he is again, Keir Starmer, our “Prime Minister,” standing awkwardly on the world stage like the substitute teacher no one listens to, arms hanging like spare parts, and mumbling more waffle than a Waffle House menu.

Watching him is a national humiliation. He looks like an awkward councillor from Croydon who’s wandered into the UN General Assembly by mistake and hasn’t the courage to leave.
