It's a rough world for all political leaders to navigate right now. Our own prime minister, Mark Carney, has morphed from environmentalist to pipeline promoter. If Starmer can stay boring in these times, good on him.

@ThePatientAnarchist Boring is the new non-conformity in 2025.

Mark Carney was a superb Governor of the Bank of England in the 2010s who provided rather more leadership and direction in the aftermath of the Brexit vote than our own elected politicians.

@SunshineGirl And because he gave an unbiased and truthful view about the economic effects of leaving the EU, he was villified by the press which on the whole supported leaving. They couldn't abide a man who had no skin in the game giving factual evidence of the looming economic disaster.
