We should fear what 2 terms of Starmer inactivity will mean for the electability of extreme right wing politics, in 2029.

I don't believe that Starmer will get two terms.

I think that he'll be an underwhelming leader (which the Tory Media will pounce on) plus the Tories will pick a candidate that their base actually likes, and that's Starmer out.
