Will Messrs Reeves and Raynor Still Be Around This Time Next Year?

Hopefully not!

A more important consideration is whether some of us will be around next year.

Angela Rayner was elected by part members and unions

Who knows?? Let’s wait until after the budget and give these guys a fighting chance to put in place their pledges and policies. The wheels of government turn very slowly, as I know only too well having spent the last 14 years of my working life as a CS!

There’s no sense in this government. Starmer will continue in his bubble. He has an overwhelming majority so he can do what he likes.
I am a bit put out that there are calls to limit meat and dairy consumption by 50 per cent to cut down on methane emissions.
There’s no point even thinking about Reeves, Rayner and Lammy. We need to preserve what’s left of our mental health!

Am not at all certain that he wanted AR anyway, but she’s the darling of the far left and the unions so that’s why she’s where she is.
Hard to predict at this early stage if there will be a new Chancellor in the next five years.

I also think KS is ruthless - anyone leading a country has to be. But the reception the media and their followers have given this government means that people will moan and grot whatever he does, so he has no reason to care about public opinion. I don't suppose that drives him as much as it may have done others. He's a few months into a 5 year term, so it doesn't matter if he's unpopular.

It’s Rayner.
I think KS will ditch Lammy soon. If he’s any sense.
