Problem for Starmer is that the way to resolve these problems is to (dramatically) increase alignment with the EU - basically we should be aiming for Norway, and all of Labour's efforts should be to get us there. But, with the UK media landscape being so far to the right, and so toxic, the second Labour put their collective head above the parapet they'll draw "Starmer backs vassal state, Brave Boris says Never Never Never!" type bilge that will fan the fire of the culture war and likely increase Johnsons popularity. I think John Bull needs to feel the pain and be confronted by, and crucially have to accept that we've made a decision at the behest of pantomime toffs and spivs and a campaign that played on the emotions of thick racist cunts who are too shy to admit that they're natural home is the NF. And pensioners.
TL:DR Starmer needs some pigeons coming home to roost before he can start pushing Norway/EFTA. And probably for Murdoch to die.
