What Starky, once again, wilfully overlooks is the fact that everyone voted AGAINST the Tories, which is why Labour won by default. People weren’t voting FOR Labour so much as blocking the Tories because they were wrecking Britain.
Starky has always enjoyed being venomous and spiteful, indeed tried to build a career out of it, playing the, “bad guy,” on BBC Radio 4 for several years, treating guests with contempt and being an exemplar of the specious argument. Always the classic appeals to authority, precedent, commonality and every other rhetorical trick in the book.
A dim person who thinks they’re clever is often more damaging than an actually clever person and Starky proves that point. He has extremist Tory written through him like a stick of Blackpool Rock.
