The Labour right wing in all their glory, from Mandelson to McSweeney. The staffers, the lobbyists, the revolving door. See how they lobby for privateer corporations, cash in via disaster capitalism etc ๐Ÿฅ€

The new nominations threshold means it's highly unlikely any of them could get on the ballot for party leadership.
And bc they are principled, they've mostly not been allowed to get any experience.

Also, I know the channel I used to speak to Wes on, and it wasn't WhatsApp. Will he swear an oath that he's disclosed all his private communications? Not just those on WhatsApp?

A classic Starmer moment was when he realised there might be an embarrassing rebellion on the Gaza ceasefire vote despite the three-line whip, so he leaned on Hoyle and got his way, but in the process revealed how easy it is to thwart HoC democracy, and how devious and morally barren he is.

Matthew Doyle, the Labour Spad/Lord who's also embroiled in a 'look the other way when your chum is a child predator' scandal - also attended the cosy suppers at Lord Roger Liddle's house with #Mandelson and #WesStreeting.
"In the first two years of Starmerโ€™s tenure, Mandelson joined a select group of influencers and rising stars on the Labour right who would regularly meet at the south London home of Lord Liddle, his lifelong friend, to discuss the partyโ€™s political strategy and the leaderโ€™s halting progress. McSweeney would update Liddleโ€™s supper club on his thinking. Alongside Mandelson and McSweeney sat Wes Streeting, now health secretary, and his husband, Joe Dancey, briefly head of communications and policy at Labour HQ last year, Matthew Doyle, the former director of communications in No 10, Matt Pound, now political director to the Treasury, and Matthew Faulding, who oversaw Labourโ€™s candidate selection ahead of the last election. From this inner circle of Blairite luminaries, there was a notable omission: Starmer himself. Such is the fundamental difference between the Labour leader and those who rose to positions of power and influence under his leadership." From The Times: https://archive.ph/0NXMJ

It's almost as if they were a gang of creepy, amoral psychopaths who ignored the most serious crimes if it might get in the way of their power games.

Given Wes Streeting's links with Mandelson and Palantir, both stronger than Starmer's, the question MPs ought really to be asking themselves is, if we replace Starmer with Streeting are we hopping out of the frying pan and into the fire?

The good, decent man Keir Starmer.
He pressured the Speaker of the House to break with precedent over the Gaza ceasefire vote - all to avoid a Labour rebellion that would have harmed his personal standing.

OPINION: Starmer prioritised his image over lives in Gaza
Parliament descended into chaos over a ceasefire vote that the Labour leader reportedly claimed would โ€˜endangerโ€™ MPs

Yeah. Lovely genociding, decent man.
Strmer ordered labour MPs to vote against the ceasefore mtion in Non 2023. He imposed a three-line whip, sacking rebels.
