Same. Raphael Behr is always great but I think he's been best on summarising the issues with Starmer, which it's hard to disagree with even if you're of the opinion that he should be given a fair crack of the whip (I am and I suspect he is too). The trouble is that in a battle between a cartoon character and someone paralysed by caution, the cartoon character will always win. We should have a proper strategy for dealing with that by this point.

This seems a pretty fair summary of the Starmer predicament. I'm pretty firmly in the "want to give him a chance but disappointed with some decisions" camp, rather than the "didn't really like him so will jump on any excuse to slag off" camp, but the article hits the nerve for me.
