The torment of the political life. Survey that ministerial team: every minister is grappling with exceptionally challenging portfolios lacking the resources to do what they know is needed.
The legacy they received was more disastrous than anticipated: they were bequeathed landmines, misleading obstacles and gaping holes. The EU departure is emerging as more financially damaging than foreseen, now losing the exchequer £80bn each year.
They face bad luck: the Trump destroyer coincided with their watch. What more unfortunate incident than a prison officer freeing a rejected refugee sexual predator? Channel migrants feel incessant.
An ill-advised internal party vote at this moment was destined to give the Labour leader a difficult time. The minimal electoral backing at the Welsh parliament byelection might not even be their lowest point.
They prepare for brickbats, but they are human. Frequently, the Health Secretary dares say the obvious truth: that there is "deep disillusionment in this country at the moment" and "a growing sense of despair about whether anyone is capable of turning this country round".
Yet, even so, the contemporary bitter state of popular sentiment is puzzling and worrying. The Labour leader is the most disliked prime minister on record. Really?
He is a decent, serious man of noble purposes, lacking excessive pride or vanity. Contrast this with the former Prime Minister, Liz Truss, or the breezy presumption of the ex-Prime Minister, each achieving minimal to justify conceited self-confidence.
Yet, the public argues, the current PM is poorer. As prime minister, he demonstrates little leadership appeal, they say: more significantly, he is missing political agility, innovative approaches or instinct for public sentiment.
The government mishandled over cuts for retirees and individuals with special needs, contrasted with expanded benefits in different sectors. Unsure which demographic to target, the government has allowed good policies unheralded, covering labor rights to green investment, new towns and a youth guarantee.
An excessive number of senior advisors continue to believe right-wing constituencies requires courting, when nearly double the number of citizens have leaned liberal since the government formed. Polling guru the renowned analyst cautions leadership to cease pursuing Farage supporters: they're lost.
Keir Starmer is underperforming; this cannot be disputed when surveys indicate no leader could recover from these record-low ratings.
Yet, during the uncharted waters of remarkable instability, past experience might not apply. The leader extracted Labour from the aftermath of the previous leadership state of despair that political analysts claimed couldn't be reversed in four years.
Could another leader achieve superior results, or are we experiencing an almost impossible to govern, constantly dissatisfied electorate? All ruling parties may be dismissed equally quickly once in power, regardless of electoral margin, only if it appears in a gilded chariot providing significant resources for stricken public services and financially strained households.
Predictably, concern within the parliamentary party will make conversation regarding new leadership widespread if May's elections go according to negative projections – or, some suggest, before that.
This represents the government's dilemma: The government's best chance lies in despair. Assume they will be defeated regardless, so utilize their significant numbers for four more years to implement their genuine left-leaning values: implement substantial tax changes, raising plenty.
Expect to lose future elections, so take decisive action currently. Forget opinion polls and public consultations; enable the public to witness authentic dedication. The exclusive approach to restore some respect is to implement openly what they think most right and fair.
The Finance Minister rightly calls Reform "the most significant danger" to British values. As the opposition virtually merge with Reform, a political alliance of some kind approaches.
The party's obligation is to implement required actions to block this outcome. Plan for partnerships, be acceptable to allied groups when party affiliations matters less than the essential limit against a political danger unprecedented in modern history.
This represents a mission to defeat discouragement.
