Quote from: Sheilbh on Today at 01:42:36 PMSure but American VPs don't normally comment on individual murders in Britain either.

Plus as I say I suspect Starmer/Number 10 are very happy with a series of headlines about pushing back on those comments (especially in the context of a leadership challenge).

Edit: I would add I think that is still further entrenching the American dominance of our discourse - even if you're defining yourself against DC it's still ultimately reactive and reinforcing their centrality.

Cool, there are lots of unprecedented things about the Trump administration. :mellow:

A great way to get them to keep commenting is to give them attention.
