DAN HODGES: From Blairite centrist to social justice warrior, how David Lammy has changed his political persona over the years - and now has a budding bromance with Trump's VP

_{//politics-government.news-articles.net/content/ .. -now-has-a-budding-bromance-with-trump-s-vp.html}
^{Published in Politics and Government on Wednesday, December 11th 2024 at 20:43 GMT by Daily Mail}

David Lammy is in the firing line again. On Monday the Foreign Secretary rose in the Commons to hail the fall of Bashar al-Assad. Or, as Lammy opted to describe him, 'the rat of Damascus'.

The article by Dan Hodges in the Daily Mail discusses the transformation of David Lammy, the shadow foreign secretary, from a left-wing firebrand to a more centrist, Blairite figure within the Labour Party. Hodges highlights Lammy's recent speech at the Labour conference where he criticized Donald Trump, calling him a "neo-Nazi sympathizing sociopath," which has drawn significant attention. Despite this, Lammy has been working to appeal to a broader electorate, engaging with business leaders and adopting a more pragmatic approach to politics. This shift is seen as an attempt to distance himself from his past radicalism and align with the more centrist, electable image that Tony Blair embodied. Hodges suggests that while Lammy's comments on Trump might play well with Labour's base, his broader strategy is to present himself as a statesman capable of dealing with international figures like Trump, should he win the next election. However, this balancing act between appealing to the left and the center could prove challenging as he navigates the political landscape leading up to the election.
