When a former Blairite is saying it, it really might happen! Starmer needs to go - New Statesman

It will take more than a new leader to save the party – but it is the only way to regenerate this failing government

1/ Last year I launched a campaign to tackle freight crime and call for a new crime code so the police can act. At first it felt like no one recognised the scale of the problem, so it’s brilliant to see @bbcmtd highlight it in a major new documentary. 🧵 https://t.co/wHrDpn87HF

You tell him!!
The 06:17 commuter train to London Marylebone for a day of meetings. Man at the station: “It’s way too early to take a selfie!” It’s way too early to be up moving about and standing on a railway platform in 2 degrees C and uttering audible words yet here we are my friend.

Amazing. Given the weather especially early in the day, the fact that so many came out to do this just shows the longevity and power in the #CoventryBlitz story. Thanks for sharing @BattlefieldBen
A huge thank you to all those who came on the free guided walks around Coventry city centre to commemorate the 85th anniversary of the blitz on 14 November 1940. It was superb to see people from all communities and ages wanting to hear the peoples stories along the new

Wonder if the Editor or Head of News will be resigning over this, or whether @bbcnickrobinson has thought about suing the @DailyMailUK for $1bn ???
This morning @DailyMail admits that it published a statement it claimed I had made when I have never said anything like it. 🤔

This…
The Enemy performing WLADITT ahead of kick-off was something else. A privilege to be a small part of it, it looked & sounded INCREDIBLE from the Control Room. I had 2 cameras, thanks to Jules & Thiago for the 3rd. Relive & Enjoy that incredible moment from our perch #PUSB

If this is true, and we’ll find out on Budget Day… After everything the government had been trailing, leaking and briefing about, what will their credibility be like in the markets and amongst the public??
Absolute bombshell report in the FT tonight that Reeves has effectively ripped up her entire Budget and abandoning plans to raise income tax. Means a lot of disparate, smaller measures now on the table. Just yesterday morning I was told they were desperate to avoid that.

A very grounded discussion here of how events played out, where the interventions should have been and the possible outcomes from here on…
A former BBC journalist and a PR expert chat about the BBC crisis on this week’s special episode of the podcast. What can we learn from this and what’s next for the BBC? https://t.co/D2ITU1rXBy
