Would A Man Of British Heritage Have Made The Gaffe...
...which caused distress to so many of our people?
I'm thinking of the D Day commemorations.
Perhaps a man who might fail Norman Tebbit's 'cricket test' isn't fully aware of our sensibilities when it comes to the sacrifices of the war.

He should have known that his actions would backfire on him, especially so close to the election thingy that has been boring us. He is British and I doubt that his heritage has much to do with his actions/
If not - surely his advisers could have done their job and pointed out the error of his ways.
Neither of the leaders of the two main political parties seems to be a good fit for their job. They lack personality and, perhaps, a backbone.
If, like some of us, Sunak had parents or grandparents that took part in D. Day and the preparations and aftermath he would be able to understand how important it is to us. He doesn't and didn't. He will never be in a position to have that empathy. Starmer rejects any such empathy with the British public in preference for an admiration of the politics of envy and spite born of his alignment with a soviet style of control and administration. There is one issue that neither of them can come to terms with but that issue will come to terms with them both.

what is wrong with a bit of mod madness on a wet sunday ? - I get frequently deleted and I have NO idea why.
Rishi - as I would have said yesterday if this thread had been open, went to Winchester ( 1350 I think).
so he should have been steeped in tradition.
Letter in the Times last week: (about faves Boris and The Nige) - everyone now knows the difference between charisma and competence to govern
Can I try to answer this question? It is not racist. The colour of Sunak's skin doesn't matter one jot or tittle.
He was born here, he was educated here. His deepest roots are not here however, unlike those whose parents, grandparents and their forebears are.
Not his fault. I can't say I like him t.b.h., if only for his insane idea of making every child study maths until 18! But he's an upright citizen etc..
Togo 18.23 is correct.
Sunak doesn't have the same deep, atavistic understanding of the people he represents, as do the vast majority. It's as simple as that. Leaving the stage (even if he'd fulfilled his obligations) is just not 'done'.
Hard to put it more simply than that. It shouldn't need spelling out to anyone representing us and our country. That's all.
