Does it seem sensible to jump from the pan into the fire?
It is time a line was drawn under all this media hoo-haa-ing and the business of the country resumed…..we have an awful lot of things that need sorting.
A looming energy crisis, a financial situation that is going to impact on the everyday life of us all…..and it is not being addressed.
All politicians are in it for what they can get out of it…they are not in it for the good of our health.
As for Keir Starmer…he is an opportunistic jumper onto band wagons…..and if you asked the man in the street what he stood for….I would guess that not one would be able to tell you.
He is a very weak opposition leader….and certainly has nothing about him that picks him out as a leader.
As for the discredited links between the KS and JavaScript affair.
It cannot be denied that KS was the director of public prosecutions ….the most senior role in the CPS….in 2009.
JavaScript was subject to four complaints which stemmed from 2007-2008.
KS was interviewed under police caution in 2009 ( while KS was head of the Crown Prosecution Service) the decision was taken NOT to prosecute him.
I cannot believe for one moment that KS was not involved in this decision in any way.
As a result of this JavaScript was allowed to continue with his abuse and he went on to die a free man….and it was only after his death that the enormity of his offences came to light.

Why is it a given that we would be jumping into the fire?
Sunak , Truss or even Hunt. One of these or somebody lesser known might prove a resounding success.
Keir Starmer will not get a chance anyway until the next election but to describe him as a band wagon jumper when you compare him with Johnson is laughable (ask Teresa May).
If Johnson digs in and survives he will simply take it on board with a swagger. He'll be encouraged that he can get away with anything because of his majority, will consider the opposition too weak and will think his back benchers will back him no matter what. Johnson can't change his personality and sooner or later he will crash again.
In fact, when he went to Kiev this week , I half expected us to be at war with China the following day.
