It's also interesting for Labour. Starmer will use it to show he can afford to lose Corbyn, who he is refusing to let back into the party. It also illustrates a potential new flank in Labours support; he's pro brexit and sat there in a union flag facemask.
You may not like it, but he is exactly the sort of person Labour need to win the next general election and he's exactly the sort of politician that would convince me it's okay to vote Labour.
On the other hand, it may create some disquiet within Labour I guess, but overall it's a clear win for them
Boris has to go sharpish. He's right on a lot of his economic defences etc but he's totally a damaged brand now.
