Keir Starmer in panic mode as book reveals closest aides slammed his terrible leadership
Keir Starmer's authority received a major knock yesterday after it was claimed his closest advisor described him as an "HR manager, not a leader".
A new tell-all book about Keir Starmer's time as leader of the opposition is set to reveal that the PM's closest aides, advisors and confidants spent years condemning his lack of leadership skills.
In a huge blow to the Prime Minister, his own Downing Street Chief of Staff Morgan McSweeney is claimed to have blasted his boss for acting "like an HR manager, not a leader".
If Labour Party insiders already knew about Starmer's lack of leadership skills, it does leave us wondering about a wider lack of leadership skills within the party.
Or maybe it doesn't leave us wondering at all, because Starmer's Cabinet suggests there are no leadership skills within the party anyway, and unfortunately this isn't a great surprise.
Leaders left the room long ago.

So is he 'Keith from HR' now?
You don't need to be all that close to Starmer to know he's not a leader. Just like you don't need to be all that close to Mt. Everest to know it's not small.
Keith from HR ... have to start using that.
'This is a severe blow to'......how many blows does it take to add to the fifty he's already received for us to be shot of him?
'Keith from HR', 'Rachel from Accounts', 'Bridgit from the School Office', 'Lammy from Crossroads', 'Miliband from the Cult'....
Bucko - ha ha, he will be if it catches on.
Sam - yes, even before the election it had been obvious for a while. There is nothing memorable about him.
James - so shall I.
Tammly - he's weird though, he doesn't seem to be aware of it.
DJ - plus 'Yvette from Acorn Antiques'. It must be healthy to make fun of them, anything else is too dispiriting.
I suppose he could be an HR manager as long as the H implies humanoid.
dearieme - yes, Keith from Humanoid Resources sounds okay.
