@PurefoyAmebo@kateferguson4 That's the problem nobody understands him and he and his team cannot describe what he stands for.
Many may wish to support him but Labour members will decide!
He can do so safe in the knowledge he will not get my vote.. both he and Rachel Reeves lost the country with the very first decision they made, on winter fuel. There is no way back from that and that has been the case for 2 years. Breakfasts for children is not enough!!
BIG story tonight!
EXCL: Keir Starmer will fight a leadership election against Andy Burnham if one is triggered.
PM spoke to key supporters this weekend and told them he will "fight" any challenge.

Of course the cabinet is not going to vote themselves out of a job and push for Starmer.. the PLP must act! Clichés like the people will never forgive us if we change leader, what on earth do you think 'the people' have just voted for? Get on with it so the country can move on!
Everybody in the Labour Party knows, but they won't admit it, that Keir Starmer can not survive til the next election. We also know Rachel Reeves will not be the next Prime Minister. the first big decision she made was to shaft pensioners on Winter fuel allowance.. come what May!
It is a big day for the Peston show: new studio; new set; new screens; new format. And there are a few things happening in politics, the economy, the world to probe and explain. We are on YouTube at 9 and ITV at 11.15. With @KemiBadenoch@NickTorfaen@RobertJenrick and @NicolaSturgeon
No matter who Mandelson is linked to is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. The fact that the PM has terrible judgement is the real issue and he has shown it time and time again. Time to go?
EXCLUSIVE
The single biggest client of Lord Mandelson’s lobbying firm was a company linked to the Chinese military, leaked documents show
Global Counsel, in which Mandelson retained shares while he was the UK ambassador to Washington, received £2.24 million from WuXi AppTec, a Shanghai-listed life science company, last year
In 2024, it received £1.42 million, when Mandelson’s appointment was announced
The company topped a list of “biggest clients by revenue” shared among senior executives at GC

Andy Burnham faces a bit of a conundrum now. He's more or less said that only he could win the forthcoming by-election, yet he now has to be seen doing everything he can to get the Labour candidate elected
BREAKING: Israeli settlers are now carrying out brutal attacks on the villages of Masafer Yatta in the West Bank, stealing hundreds of sheep, setting villages on fire, and assaulting residents.
People are pleading for help.
There really is something sulphurous about Matt Goodwin.
Incendiary views.
Suspect opinion polls.
Massive self-obsession.
British public life would be so much better without him.
