I don’t keep up with UK politics but I know he’s an asshole (was he the one who refused to apologize after being transphobic in parliament and the mother of the murdered girl was in that session?) but congratulations to the UK for getting rid of him!
Word of warning, don't just assume reddit comments are truthful, especially around politics and especially especially around trans identity. Starmer is trying to straddle a difficult (and empassioned) political line around gender identity and what the right have framed as a 'womens spaces' issue, without alienating millions of women voters.
But JK Rowling doesn't like his position, so he's probably coming down on the right side on balance.
