Between Andy Burnham picking a welfare hawk as his chief of staff and the Home Office drama over Mike Tapp’s op-ed, this orderly transition of power is fraught with drama, writes Ash Sarkar.
That Al Carns stuff they link to is just bizarre. “Make everything 10% better” is not a policy. And him talking about amending the legacy act to protect soldiers from being prosecuted for war crimes is sure one quick way to destroy friendly relations with Ireland after they’ve slowly improved over the past two years. Saying it’s stuff they were “cleared for years ago” puts him well to the right of even David Cameron who apologised for the British army’s actions on Bloody Sunday. I don’t understand the establishment media’s obsession with glazing him constantly, he’s clearly a bit dim and very dangerous to put in power.
