[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml [S] 2 points 5 days ago (1 child) He said Starmer made large mistakes on foreign policy but sure just blatantly lie. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] DrCake@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago (1 child) He’s also signalled he will spend much less time on foreign affairs compared to Starmer. That to me does not mean the mistakes will be undone permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml [S] 2 points 5 days ago (1 child) So you're saying he said he's intentionally going to keep making the same mistakes? And do you think a PM can just decide to "not deal with foreign policy" or something? That's not how any of this works. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] DrCake@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago Much less time Does not mean no time, but that it will not be the focus so most of the energy and time will be on domestic matters. He might make some changes, not being as friendly to Isreal is probably what will happen. But he isn’t going to suddenly change 180 to what has been policy for the last 2 years. IWhat I’m trying to get at is that if you expect him to cancel arms deals with Isreal and provide aid to Gaza, then you will be disappointed. permalink fedilink source parent
