More great reporting from #TheGuardian's #EleniCourea and #PippaCrerar on the squabbles within the UK #LabourParty.

"They all think Keir is done’: how push to protect Starmer’s job backfired spectacularly". Now Westminster is awash with plotting to replace #Starmer. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/nov/14/push-protect-keir-starmer-job-backfired-briefing-streeting-mcsweeney

Of course, it's all just a competition to go down in history as chief lemming: the person at the wheel when Labour crashes and burns at the next general election. #Popcorn 🤣 #ukpol
