23 December 1966, at Trattoria Terrazza Italian restaurant in Soho, Mick Jagger declared his romance with Chrissie Shrimpton was over. He is quoted to have said, "I don't dig the marriage bit at the moment."

Is this a sign?

In a rare moment, England actually won in penalties in their UEFA Euro match against Switzerland, and just after Labour was elected too! A coincidence? The UK have won Eurovision five times over the years, but...

1967 - Harold Wilson (Labour)

1969 - Harold Wilson (Labour)

1976 - Harold Wilson (Labour)

1981 - Margaret Thatcher (Conservative)

1997 - Tony Blair (Labour) 4 out of 5 times the UK have won Eurovision was under a Labour government and out of that alone 3/4 was under Harold Wilson! It should also be mentioned that England won their only World Cup in 1966 under Wilson, and the final of Eurovision 1976 was held on 3 April. 2 days later on 5 April, Wilson resigned as PM. So this therefore proves that Wilson was the best PM ever. Also also, 1 day after Tony Blair became PM the UK won Eurovision 1997 on 3 May, so clearly this means Blair was a great PM in his first term before he became a war criminal.

So if Starmer's the new Labour Prime Minister now, will England win the Euros this year? On 10 July, England will have to face the Netherlands in the semi-finals. If they win, it will be proof of more luck thanks to Labour, and they'll have to face either Spain or France in the final... if England wins against France in particular, especially as they lost to them last time in the World Cup 2022, that'll mean that it's no coincidence that a Labour government ensures the country good luck in international competitions.
