Starmer needs to go live in north africa


There is a classical story about a man who is in the middle east and gets captured by, I think, Bedouins. And he’s kept in a cage and they cut off his nose, among other indignations, and no matter what happens to him, he’s philosophical and tolerant about it. I wish I could remember the name of the piece. At any rate, Starmer is like that ridiculous fellow. No matter how awful the migrants and other muslims in England behave, he not only tolerates them, but accepts their behavior.
(If anyone knows the name of the piece, please let me know.)

Brave Search:
The individual described is Samuel H. Cuff, a young English archaeologist who was captured by Tipu Sultan’s forces in the Holy Land during the late 18th century.
He was mutilated by having his nose and one of his hands cut off.
Cuff later underwent a surgical procedure to reconstruct his nose using a flap of skin from his forehead, an operation that was reportedly practiced in India at the time.

Roald Dahl could have written that.
