I’m saddened to see Streeting resign and now he’ll start the protracted process of attempting to usurp the PM and take his place.

I’m sad because this is the first time this has happened to a Labour PM whilst still serving in power, sad because this will cause yet more chaos and economic and financial instability and sad because I’m actually pretty sick of all politicians at this moment!

Knee jerk response to the wins by Reform, handing even more success to Farage who will be lapping up this circus.
Totally counter productive.

Absolutely! Though Farage doesn’t need to be too smug, his newly elected councillors appear to be diminishing every day!

The psycho drama continues and it’s very… boring. Wes Streeting writes that Starmer has no vision for this country… but he has! It’s basically fairly communist in its aspirations. Starmer needs to improve his communication skills pretty quickly.
