Damning report on meltdown of Labour government by @PronouncedAlva đ MPs âmutinousâ and embarrassed to admit they are Labour politicians in their social lives đłď¸ No10 âin denialâ đŞ Senior Labour figures blaming Darren Jones 𪌠Starmergeddon?
WHAT KEIR WONâT HEAR by @PronouncedAlva Keir Starmer is in trouble. Behind the Prime Ministerâs back in the Parliamentary Labour Party, there is now widespread mockery, sarcasm, name-calling and the darkest of gallows humour. MPs are worn down by 16 months of unpopular policies

This is the most informed article article I've read about the #BBC crisis...by Andrew Marr. From a journalistic point of view, It helps if you know where many of the bodies are buried & he certainly does https://t.co/E9VMmM5mUt

Pat McFadden tells todayâs Sunday Times about an âopportunity crisisâ and a âdiseaseâ of worklessness. The crisis is of incentives - work not paying enough relative to welfare. The disease in a broken welfare system - but itâs one he can cure. My take:

Still nearly 3 weeks to go and everything can change of course. But she sounded like someone who has decided to take big, bold decisions, not to try to dodge her way through a less controversial budget⌠And then intends to stay where she is. NervousâŚbut determined!

NEW: Just completed a fascinating conversation with the chancellor in Downing Street. Most obvious take is that not only has she decided to raise taxes but itâs likely that income tax will go up. I asked her four times and got absolutely no denial. More at 6 on @LBC
With her rare pre-Budget speech, has the Chancellor just laid the groundwork for tax rises? Rachel Reeves speaks to @AndrewMarr9 at 6pm:

Iâve written about Labourâs bad week. Which comes on the back of a bad year. âStarmer isn't just unlucky and accident prone â he's giving it awayâ

A brilliantly entertaining read from someone who knows more than a bit about politics and the media. Starmer & Co are very much masters of their own misfortune and seem impervious to learning from their errors.
