Burnham 'is Labour’s best hope of keeping Farage out of No10'
Andy Burnham represents Labour’s best hope of keeping Nigel Farage out of No 10, Britain’s leading pollster has warned, as well as asserting that Sir Keir Starmer “doesn’t have the skill set for Downing Street”.
In a scathing assessment, Professor Sir John Curtice accused the prime minister of not having a vision for the country and said he does not believe Sir Keir can “learn to be a politician” in the new year...

It's almost as if the other Labour politicians didn't notice that this politician has no idea how to do politics before they promoted him to Top Politician. Only then did they find out - must have been quite a surprise.

Does Sir John mean this kind of craft?

In my perfect world, if Ange ever stood for the leadership, or even re-election as an MP, this would be the photo on her campaign leaflet.

I'm all for replacing Keir Stumbler... but not with anyone else from the Labour Party.
Rayner's evocative dinghy ... ship of fools.
Penseivat - and still people would vote for her.
DJ - yes, it's almost surprising that at least some Labour members aren't suggesting that.
James - it's her dignity dinghy.
