Best job in the world #EqualPayGlasgow #UnionsWork







💥Keir Starmer facing perilous 24 hours which is critical to his survival as PM - Wes Streeting allies say he he’s prepared to go for leadership if Starmer’s premiership falls apart - but that he won’t make first move - and that he has relayed this message to Downing Street. - But health secretary understood to be aware that a contest may not happen without him triggering it - and some supporters feel now is his best chance. - Angela Rayner has warned of need for change of direction in first statement since election results. “What we are doing isn’t working, and it needs to change. This may be our last chance.” - Former deputy PM says it was a “mistake” to block Andy Burnham’s return to Parliament - and that while issues facing Labour are “bigger than personalities” Starmer needs “best players” on pitch. - Catherine West, a Labour backbencher, has already said she’ll challenge PM for leadership on Monday if he does not set out timetable to resign. Separately, about 40 MPs have already called on Starmer to step down/ set out exit plan. - But backers of Andy Burnham - who were among first out of traps on Friday calling for PM to set out timetable - have been trying to persuade West to withdraw challenge as he wouldn’t have time to get back. - Starmer is determined to fight on, his allies say, but even they acknowledge he has to give speech of his political life on Monday to keep Labour MPs on board - and there are doubts it will be enough. - Labour MPs feeling desperate after elections - but many also concerned about chaos a contest could unleash, are anxious about who would take over and - crucially - what they would do. Many think if you’re going to make a change - do it closer to next election.
