On BBC #PoliticsLive, @AyoCaesar slams Keir Starmer for wasting his landslide majority with 18 months of inaction.

“They had a once in a generation opportunity to deal with the structural issues facing this country. And they haven’t. That’s to do with their lack of politics, their lack of vision, and their lack of competence.”

Number Ten is “saying that Keir Starmer’s not going to resign. They say he’s upbeat and confident.”

Ash: “Oh God. He’s toast.”
