I argued some years ago that Starmer was put in charge after Corbyn to make Labour electable again. He was a nightwatchman to hold the Party until a new leader arose.

Perhaps Starmer was as surprised as anyone else that no leader emerged before he became Prime Minister? It would certainly explain many observations of his 'personal style'.

DJ - he certainly seems out of his depth, as does Reeves. If he was supposed to be a nightwatchman, maybe Streeting's way has already been smoothed.
