11 months agoBen Wallace may be a Tory (very bad), but as far as Tories go, he’s the only one I’m aware of with the ability to actually focus on his job. I’ve never heard anything about him or from him apart from the occasional update on Ukraine, and for that, I’ll at least go so far as to say: I don’t think he’s a clown. He is a strong contender for the Most Competent Tory.
I wonder how much this whole situation resonates with what happened in Argentina, when they elected Milei.
Milei to them was an obvious lunatic who would probably be terrible but had a small chance to be different, versus their traditional party who would very obviously just continue the country’s predictable economic decline.
Then again, I can’t really see any way Trump could be good for you if you’re poor. Not ever by the most charitable interpretations.
