Technophobe. We CAN turn the corner, we just have to find it.





David Miliband is favourite to become Burnham’s pick for the Foreign Office. Unfortunately, I think Miliband as Foreign Secretary would represent at best stale continuity and at worst a disaster. The best we can probably hope for is that he works closely with the new Defence Secretary to ensure the PM gives the armed forces the money they need, continuing UK leadership in trying to get Ukraine the best peace deal it can, being more clear-eyed on the Chinese threat, and focusing our efforts in Africa on the great game for access to critical minerals rather than castigating African governments for daring to put to death murderers and child rapists. The worst case scenario is that he spends his time taking us back as far he dares into the welcoming embrace of the EU, reviving the Chagos giveaway and doubling down on net zero ‘international leadership’.

Sorry, I’m a little lost here. Why would someone from South Yorkshire end up at a specific property in Dartmoor 270+ miles away by sheer coincidence? But they seem to tell us with absolute certainty that there’s no political motivation.
