I feel... and hear me out.... you're taking this opinion piece too seriously. Read it like you'd read a Spectator article (and I very much appreciate you might read the Spectator). These are meant to be tongue in cheek. They're not meant to be taken seriously or over analysed.
Could you imagine being this put out about the guardian opinion pieces?
Honest. I like it.
I thought it was an AI at first 🤖
Are you able to explain what you were trying to joke about?
Easy to sell clicks though.
Go on I'll bite.... Where's the joke here?
Russia's useful idiots.
You could say.... a wave of redundancies.
America will continue to support Israel. There's money in it. That's the bottom line for the US. To think differently is naive.
We shouldn't be surprised. Lammy is a cabinet minister in a UK government. You're not going to get a different answer on this topic. Deselect him if you feel strongly otherwise. These people don't listen to anything else.
He's also a hardcore Christian. Listen to his views on assisted dying for example. Whilst still in opposition he was asked about this on Question Time not that long ago. When the topic via Esther Rantzen first came up. He said he would seek council from his constituency and then made it clear that it was his church constituency that he was referring to. Forget about the electorate. His head and heart is firmly aligned with what his congregation wants. I suspect on this matter it is much the same.
Ed knows how to write for his audience. He's a shock jock for the modern age.
