AL CARNS defence minister will definitely stand in a leadership contest according to Larisa Brown.



🚨"I don't think I could even shake his hand." Falklands hero Simon Weston attacks potential Labour leadership contender @AlistairCarns for his lack of "moral courage" in standing up for veterans. @PhilipIngMBE | @SimonWestonCBE










@paulmasonnews @robertkapok “If the global left – which was on a roll during 2011-2013 – is to regain momentum, it needs leaders like Tsipras to find thinkers and doers like Varoufakis, and to nurture them.” @paulmasonnews didn’t you write this?






EXCL: Angela Rayner has been cleared by HMRC of deliberate wrongdoing or carelessness over her tax affairs, paving the way for a potential leadership bid if Keir Starmer’s grip on power unravels. The former DPM has settled £40,000 in unpaid stamp duty, but has not paid any penalty as a result of the investigation. HMRC was also satisfied there was no tax avoidance. Rayner tells me she was “bruised” by whole experience because of intrusion into her disabled son’s personal life, but also because it had appeared as though she was “in it for myself” rather than on the side of ordinary people. Rayner indicated she may run in event of a contest as she would “play my part” and that she understood why Labour MPs were so upset following last week’s election crushing. She said Starmer should “reflect on” stepping aside.
