So Streeting now resigned to work on getting his 81 signatures and Rayner has conveniently sorted out her tax affairs without any fines or penalties allegedly We are going to have a by election in Makerfield in which Burnham will be allowed to stand Millibellend has also put himself in the race along with some lesser known candidates Will Streeting get his challenge in quick enough to head the lefties off at the pass or or are we going to see the government shifting sharply to the left or will the stubborn mule spite them all and call a general election ? I would love it to be the latter but I suspect it will be the lefties seizing control by the end of the year |

"He who wields the knife never wears the crown." [Michael Heseltine] I get the impression Streeting tried an early bluff and Starmer called it. And I'm not sure Labour should be confident about Burnham winning in Makerfield. A GE now (before anyone has actually shown their hand) is technically possible - https://www.instituteforgovernment.org. ... l-election High risk and showboaty - not Starmer style IMO. He's survived this far so why interrupt his enemies when they're making mistakes? |
