The fact that there has not been proper outcry at the transformation of WH Smiths into TG Jones tells me everything I need to know about where this country is at now. I am old enough to remember the Choco Krispies protests of 1998.

We have chaos and Ed Miliband, they're just not evenly distributed.

Does Keir Starmer realise how much trouble he's in? The Prime Minister is facing a crisis of contempt among his own MPs

Anyone who's worked for a large company will recognise the description of Sir Keir in this—a supercilious blandroid CEO, cut off from the real world, isolated from decision making by delegation, but still demanding the final say & frequently going against advice
