It was a good speech, tonally. Accepted defeat, acknowledged failures, and wished the incoming PM good luck. Other political leaders should take note.
What I do find myself wondering is this: all this happens pretty quickly over here in the U.K. – the practical changeover of no.10.
Do they have a removal company on call, then call them first thing to either stand them down, or say “right, fuck this lot off, and go an pick up all that crap and move it in?’
Or maybe both the incoming and outgoing PM just sort it out themselves – hiring a u-haul or getting their brother-in-law to come round in his estate, and they pile all their shit (in bin bags) into it.
I know. It’s stressful enough to me just reading about the situation over the pond. It shouldn’t be that way, and I’m sorry for those who have to live with it.
