Good morning, from the NS --
Does Keir Starmer realise how much trouble he’s in?
The Prime Minister is facing a crisis of contempt among his own MPs
By Ailbhe Rea

I've only read the condensed snippets in my mail, but lots of interesting stuff there
"" So this week I take you inside the underbelly of the Labour parliamentary party – a place of contempt, plotting and despair; and inside Number 10 – a place of personality clashes and not wanting to tell the boss certain uncomfortable truths. I want to answer the question: does Keir Starmer know how much trouble he is in ?""

What did Dunt do wrong? Excuse my ignorance
"A.V. Deggar @avdeggar.bsky.social · 6 mois
Oh no! The Remainiacs are revolting—but have no fear, once Cooper or Young Wes is at the helm, the pitchforks will go away....until the next time!"
Damn ! That reminded me that Cooper still exists .

Starmer rather lamely insisted that he was leading a “united team”, but that only led to glum faces among the Labour MPs behind him and roars of laughter from the Tory benches.
One Labour adviser said: “Morgan McSweeney has made Kemi Badenoch good at PMQs. Unforgivable.”
The smart money remains on a badly-wounded Starmer remaining in post until May, after which he will face a leadership challenge.
But in trying to make their boss seem strong, his aides have only succeeded in highlighting his fundamental weakness, meaning his chances of surviving such a coup have all-but vanished.
