It's okay to change one's policies as long as the change is a result of re-assessing a situation and taking into account changing dynamics that make those changes necessary. Changing it however just to get votes is evil. Not sure where Starmer stands. Give him time. As long as he gets the job done and improves the UK's current situation, it doesn't matter whether he's a boring person. Being charismatic might be a benefit, but it's not what he's being elected for.

[@cjs2020th]

Like ALL Labour & Conservative governments in the last 70+ years, he will change absolutely NOTHING of substance which will impact positively the quality of life for the working people of the United Kingdom. Also like many opposition parties of before he has pontificated about electoral talking points for the sole purpose of vote garnering. He has ZERO intention of implementing any systemic change at all. 😡

[@luke_cohen1]

From what I can tell with this video, Starmer seems to be following a new branch of the Left called "popularism" which is all about pushing the policies that might sound boring, non ideological, and nonradical but are what the average person wants from their leaders based on polling data (yeah, I know, I don’t like that this basic and natural democratic thought process needed a name and lobbyists for it either, I don’t need or want to hear it from y’all).

[@wopofey]

How is changing your policies to be more popular evil? Being pragmatic and knowing when to tweak your policies to appeal to voters is how actual positive change is achieved, far preferable to stubbornly maintaining ideological purity with no chance of holding power.

[@SnoopyDoofie]

@@wopofey If you don't like a party's policy, vote for one that aligns with your ideology. A party's policy shouldn't change that often and when they do change, it should never be to appeal to more voters. That's just wishy washy politics of an unstable party. Most parties are created around a core set of stable beliefs. A party that believes in rasing taxes may have no other choice but to lower taxes when a sudden unexpected event happens like a pandemic that hits an economy hard. But once the storm has passed, and things get better, then the party should revert to its normal policies.

What we in the Northeast is some big companies to build factories up here give us jobs, there was a time when the Northeast was the manufacturing centre of Britain.

Stop most of the building codes and help with the building. If we were given better rents for putting back to the grid instead of pennies then a lot of people would not have to have solar panels using green fields and farmland for acres and acres, hundreds and thousands of acres of land are being used for solar but in regions where wind is great they still use solar which takes hundreds of more acres than wind and is a bigger eyesore than having a wind turbine in sight!

He seems like a reliable and honest man. Being boring is totally ok for a politician, I mean look at Angela Merkel. She could also be described as boring, but it is the silent strength that defines her. Politicians are not actors or starlets and therefore should not act like it. I hope that he will bring stability to the UK after the mess of the last few Prime Ministers, especially Johnson.

Well, Jeremy Corbyn didn't down play the extent of antisemitism. These were false accusations, some were even made by Starmer himself. It was later revealed after they character assassinated Corbyn that there is no basis to the antisemitism claims. I think you should clarify this.
