“Well, it's really hard to say, isn't it? Because you never know. that surround the governance of ministers, the prime minister, officials and special advisers.”

“Former Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner has told Labour back benches that now is the time to oust Keir Starmer from number 10.”

“We actually released some polling of the Labour membership, which talks about where they're sitting in terms of whether they want to see a leadership challenge, and the party's quite divided on it.”

“But only around a quarter of voters think he'll still be in the job by the end of the year.”

“it feels like there is a real realisation settling amongst the Labour Party... that actually he isn't going to lead them into the next election. So they now need to be thinking about the choreography of what happens next.”

“Can someone come in and fix this? Because may God help us? They've got three more years. So is there an individual in their ranks that can turn this ship around? Because I think you all agree. If Waist Reading or Shabana Mahmood came in, or some other character like John Kearns, Mr. Blobby, is Mr. Blobby in the House of Commons?”

“Health Secretary Wes Streeting has supported, has supported more than 80 MPs to trigger a leadership election.”

“Streetings ahead, Wes has the numbers and assault on the leadership of Kirstar is expected in just a week's time. Angela Reina sounding out support from backbenchers and the trade unions and Andy Burnham in Greater Manchester thinks he's got a safe seat and could be back in the comments in.”

“rid of Keir Starman replacing with Ed Miller Band or Angela Rayner. doesn't mention Andy Burnham in that story, but yeah Steve Reed come out pretty strong comments as you'd imagine he would do So but it is but it's very interesting that someone like Steve Reed a very prominent figure very prominent kind of Stammer loyalist would be willing”

“An assault on the leadership of Kirstam is anticipated in just a week's time. Following what is expected to be a catastrophic set of local election results.”

“So folks, can a new leader save Labour? That's the conversation we are having. No, nothing can save Labour now. But Labour will save themselves because they've got nothing to lose.”

“Sir Keir Starmer principally over his decision to appoint Peter Mandelson, Lord Mandelson, cabinet ministry. be a crisis and 5,000 is quite a significant number.”
