Dignified statement from @Keir_Starmer who has taken the right decision both for the country and his legacy. He has made mistakes, but being Prime Minister is not an easy job at the moment. Thank you for your service. And thoughts with his advisers, who also lose their jobs today
Turn on the TV news to hear the latest on Keir Starmer and find them using a film of him & me campaigning to remain in the EU through a second referendum
What the Makerfield and Aberdeen South by-elections tell us. My piece for @ConHome on a good night for the Tories and why tactical voting could be disastrous for Reform. https://t.co/Vwj3QSY1iB
No one should be celebrating what seems certain to be the imminent departure of #Starmer & arrival of our 7th PM in 10 years
Something has gone horribly wrong in British politics. Stability & competence were key parts of what made us a great country.
Poorer quality politicians, the cheapening of political debate (in part social media but also MSM) & rise of so called populism led to #Brexit & the decision to leave #EU just exacerbated the demise of competent Govt, sensible politics & decent politicians.

@Nigel_Farage@RobKenyonReform Both you & MakerfieldRFK are tarred with racial abuse. Rob Kenyon was suspended on X, & has deleted all his social media accounts. Reform must suspend him & review his internet activities.

Burnham says Labour has been going wrong for 40 years. He has been far more a part of that than Keir Starmer has! Starmer is fairly new to the game of politics.
