Interesting phrasing

Streeting follows through: Nerves were rising among some MPs that he would bottle it. The health secretary told colleagues lined up to quit this week: "I wouldn't ask you to do anything I wouldn't be prepared to do myself." One of the big questions is: Will those ministers told to hold off quitting now go over the top too?

Keir Starmer's regime is imploding. 100 MPs demanding he resigns, 9 resign in protest against him, Labour hammered in last week's local elections. All whilst the trial of 3 young Eastern European men is ongoing at the Old Bailey for coordinated attacks on his properties.

We may, or may not, know what's going on in the Labour Party by the end of today - Streeting may or may not enter the race Rayner's now available but hasn't yet A newbie, Al Carns, may enter IF there is a race PM's allies say he would fight a race but there won't be one, cos no one else has the numbers And Burnham? would run IF there's a race + he finds and wins a seat Lucky there's not much going on in the world to worry about... bbc.co.uk/news/live/cwy2…

Angela Rayner paid a high price for her mistake by - rightly - quitting as Housing Secretary and Deputy PM - but it was a mistake and she's free to run. This is crucial and she should publish that email 👇 "The BBC has seen an email from the tax authority to Rayner's lawyers which verifies that HMRC regards the matter as closed. HMRC also spells out in the email that Rayner will not face a penalty charge. A penalty is incurred if a tax error is "careless" or "deliberate"." bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

We saw some madness under the Tories. But the Prime Minister literally refusing to discuss with his cabinet the fact 100 of his MPs have just resigned and called for his resignation is pretty close to the top.

As I’ve said, Keir Starmer needs to go. But not through a Cabinet stitch-up or palace coup. And not through a snap leadership election designed to hand Wes Streeting a coronation. We need a proper democratic contest involving the whole Labour movement so we get this right.

Where are we this morning? - 74 MPs now calling on PM to go - Mahmood, Healey and Cooper into see PM last night. Cabinet source tells me Mahmood/Cooper told PM to set out timetable. V late last night was told Cooper didn’t urge PM to set out timetable, what she did say unclear - Reed & McFadden urged PM to fight on - Lammy & Reynolds ‘by his side’ and ringing around ministers to try gather support/test water - PM weighing up options overnight, but No 10 did replace the PPS’s resigning late evening - Crunch cabinet this morning. Will be first time Streeting will see PM. - leading soft left figures been trying to ‘stop people losing their heads so we can have a less fraught response’ but one admitted late last night ‘it feels like it’s unstoppable now though’ - Cabinet minister last night: “I think the Lab party is about to put itself out of power for a serious period of time by repeating mistakes of the Tories” Will be outside No 10 on @SkyNews from 9am with @SophyRidgeSky as Cabinet gathers
