    I hope not. My hands tremor when they say they find a politician “funny”.

        The one thing I like about Starmer is that he doesn’t try to be funny. He tries to be a politician. A bad one. One that inherited a broken system. One who is also now under fire from criticism of corruption. But he doesn’t shy away from it. He attends interviews where he gets regularly roasted for his bad performance, and he trucks on.

        I don’t like him, but I respect what he tries to be.

          I was referring more to his views. Starmer is centre (some even say Tory light) which is not far away from Tusk, who is also centre. But anyway, to conclude, Tusk is very far away BoJo. He was just joking this time which is not something he does often.
