Normal headline in the Telegraph

Do you know who he is referring to?

Starmer.

I looked him up.

Professor Emeritus of French history at Cambridge., duel French-British nationality.

An absolute pillar of the loathed academic elite except he's right wing, loves Brexit, makes a lot of noise about hating Commies, so gets the front page of the Telegraph.

Robert Tombs - I looked him up.

Professor Emeritus of French history at Cambridge., duel French-British nationality.

An absolute pillar of the loathed academic elite except he's right wing, loves Brexit, makes a lot of noise about hating Commies, and so gets the front page of the Telegraph.

The article in question is a rambling rant as you'd imagine. Exports down? Nothing to do with Brexit, it's the deep state in Whitehall!
