Diarmaid Ferriter: Was it for Keir Starmer's craven display before Trump that London endured the Blitz?

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : "When I thump the table and push my face towards him, what does he do?"
50% : Historically this union has been presented as grounded not just in free trade, but in democracy and the rule of law.
41% : His memory was invoked for an additional reason last week during the V-E Day anniversary as the White House - where Donald Trump after his election promptly insisted on the return of Jacob Epstein's bust of Churchill to the Oval Office, originally gifted by the British government - and Downing Street trumpeted their trade deal to cement their "special relationship".
36% : Few would envy Britain managing a US president who is a deranged dictator, but it is a measure of the current international cowardice in dealing with Trump that British prime minister Keir Starmer, a former human rights lawyer, heralded last week's announcement of the trade deal as a "historic, fantastic day".
31% : Trump, however, is facing no table thumpers, at home or abroad.
