Can reason prevail here?
Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump arrives at the Republican National Convention Wednesday, July 17, 2024, in Milwaukee. After a month of traveling and working remotely from Britain, I was having my last English breakfast Monday morning — porridge seemed appropriate in a cool clime — on a garden terrace in the quiet Whitehall neighborhood of London.
Another breakfaster came out through the French doors. I looked up and said good morning to a gent about my age, blazered. He stayed silent, simply nodded, went over to his table. I said it was nothing and asked if he would like to sit down. He did so. Hearing that I was American, he said, “Ah, you and your country and your guns! So many guns! It’s not as if we English don’t have guns. I once bought a house in the country and it came with several rifles, for shooting rabbits. But we don’t have guns everywhere.”
It is among the many differences in UK politics and domestic life from ours. After a hard-fought, blissfully short campaign of a few weeks, Labour had soundly trounced the Conservatives for the first time in 14 years. The transition was instantaneous.
