She said what she said about trying something different in relation to economic policy It was clear when she said it that she meant rejecting conventional wisdom which rang alarm bells immediately. I actually thought someone would stop her.
I hope Starmer does something different, yes. But there is no rationale to doing anything just because it is different, as a roll of the dice. Sadly I think he will tend to err (and I mean err) on the side of caution.
What Truss actually did was far more risky than anything Corbyn proposed. And yet...my neighbours here will still elect another Tory. Because Labour "would be worse" despite all the evidence.
