Linkblog π: Ian McEwanβs long look back
British politics does not offer much more cause for optimism. Liz Truss becoming prime minister is βsuch a disasterβ, he says. βSheβs intellectually so vapid. I think her world-view is so tiny, so shrivelled, so ungenerous, so dryβ¦ Or maybe sheβs just a highly ambitious politician whoβs playing a very cynical game.β He sees an opportunity for Keir Starmerβs Labour β βI admire him in many waysβ β but for McEwan, an ardent Remainer who wrote a satirical novella, The Cockroach, about Brexit, the Labour leader remains βtied to the Toriesβ until he βadmits Brexit was a colossal errorβ.
