    Why would a PM who saved his party from a popular leftist movement have sympathy for Pinochet? It makes no sense.

      There’s nothing to suggest he does.

      Powell worked on the Good Friday Agreement as well as a handful of other things, so presumably Starmer wants him for his experience.

      The thing about him negotiating release for Pinochet has no backing.
