I like David Davis. An excellent politician.

What is there to debate? He's not in the position anymore, and as Starmer said many times, due process was followed.

Yes, the Pathetic Conservative Leader says he lied?


So she is at fault for this 3 hour debate.

He's had some apt nicknames, Prince of Darkness, The Dark Lord. He's come back from scandals time and again, but how and why? He was a member of the Young Communists, I wonder how that squares with his lifestyle with the rich and famous? And the fact he thought mushy peas was guacamole.

I did like David Davies, I think he'd have been better than Cameron as a PM.

This is going to be, and should be, extremely tricky for Starmer to ride this through.
It was a terrible judgemental error to put Mandelson as USA Ambassador.
There is a growing strong rumbling against Starmer on this, on the Labour backbenches.
It's pretty clear I would say that Labour will have, (to be as kind as I can), it will have a near nightmare in elections next year, in Wales, Scotland and the local elections.
There's already soundings of, IF the elections are bad, then it is a judgement on Starmer.

I can't recall reading of or coming across in 20th century onwards politics, where Labour would 'force' a leader OUT, whether as leader of the opposition or as PM.
(Except for Ramsay McDonald in the 1930s).
However I'm of the view now that it is heading to likely there'll be moves against Starmer which are growing now so much, that it could reach to be 'much more' than likely.

Yes PM Starmer
blames his advisors

Will he sack any?

[bots]

the tories are just giving starmer the same treatment that labour gave the tories PM's. Starmer should be made to squirm
