Yes, I did say that

[Bizarrely a British Airways flight simulator had been installed
outside No10 this morning,
sparking jokes about whether Sir Keir was planning a getaway]

[No10 has been circulating messages
to normally-loyal MPs pleading for them to speak
up in support of the leader
at the PLP session this evening.

But many are openly speculating about how
long Sir Keir can continue without the man
who masterminded his rise to power and who
was seen as 'the PM's brain'.

Sir Keir previously considered quitting as
Opposition leader after Labour lost the
Hartlepool by-election,
at the height of Boris Johnson's popularity.]

Starmer may have apologised to the victims, but him clinging on like this passing the blame is only saying to them that the powerful men will always win.

people should think a little on who the potential replacements are before they get rid of Starmer. For example, how do people think Rayner will get along with Trump?

“This isn’t easy and it’s not without pain, as I have a genuine friendship with Keir Starmer. But my first priority and my first loyalty is to my country, Scotland.

“And I am not willing to sacrifice Scotland’s NHS, our schools, our communities, our towns, cities, villages and islands to a third decade of an SNP Government.

“That’s why the distraction needs to end and the leadership in Downing Street has to change.”

He added: “We cannot allow the failures at the heart of Downing Street to mean the failures continue here in Scotland.”

David Lammy MP was going into 10 Downing Street

Shouted back at Reporter Christopher Hope (GB News)
"We have waited 14 years to get here." No, Keir Starmer is staying
