@theblockspot If you say it’s only MJ or LeBron the answer is Kareem without a shadow of a doubt. I’d have him second above MJ though.

@meganekenyon Call him and ask? Surely an agreement could be worked out. We won’t stand (and effectively crown you PM) if you agree to introduce proportional representation? Or have an EU referendum? Or any of the many things that would make a difference. It’s called strategic thinking.

A Green Source responds to this from Caroline Lucas: "The problem is that we just don't know which Andy Burnham is going to turn up. Will it be the Blairite politician who went along with years of privatisation and welfare cuts, or the one who has publicly supported proportional representation and expressed support to make changes to the failed economic model? We just don't know."
Caroline Lucas@CarolineLucas
I hope this isn’t true. There are times when it’s more important to put country before party. This is one of them. Burnham’s longstanding commitment to a fairer voting system could transform our democracy & counter dire threat of a Reform UK government theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

@amitisinvesting I need trading 212 to open a short that I can hammer 🤣

@owenjonesjourno The weird thing is that I suspect Streeting’s only shot would be a 1v1 against Starmer. Any of the other contenders get the numbers and he loses to them. Membership would probably want someone more obviously left of centre.
English
You don’t know Wes Streeting’s numbers.
They go to another school
Beth Rigby@BethRigby
Streeting ally: "Wes has numbers but taken decision not to trigger challenge/immediate contest as clear that wouldn’t be right thing for party. Keir needs to set out a timetable and allow widest possible contest. It’s the only way to rebuild from this mess."

@AyoCaesar Genuine question but if someone stepped aside couldn’t Labour Executive (Starmer) block him standing like they did in the by-election?

Catherine West has the opportunity to do the funniest thing.

NEW: Andy Burnham allies claim the Manchester mayor has found an MP to step aside so he can return to Parliament and challenge Starmer for leader - and will announce it tomorrow - by @cazjwheeler @theipaper inews.co.uk/news/politics/…

@lewis_goodall “The desire not to have an argument means we rarely make an argument” is the most devastating line for me.
English
The devastating thing about this letter is that it lays out the critique of Starmer you hear again and again from across the factions, that politically speaking, he cannot do the job, something they've all experienced first hand from within.

EXCLUSIVE: Jess Phillips, safeguarding minister, resigns from govt. “The desire not to have an argument means we rarely make an argument..."

@Keir_Starmer Hold an EU referendum. Stop sucking up to Israel and billionaires and actually introduce some progressive policies. Do the things you said you’d do when you were made leader and you’d be doing a fuck load better.
English
We must respond to the message that voters have sent us and break with the status quo once and for all.
We must confront the big challenges the public face with real answers.
That is how we will deliver the change that people are desperate for and build a stronger and fairer country.

@lancelachlan The Labour Party shouldn’t be so shit. They need to be sent a message. Sadly the message they’ll learn is as always “let’s be even more right wing”.

Reform is underperforming. Labour might now lose closer to 1,000 seats rather than 2,000. Most of Reform’s gains are coming from the Tories, but in many areas Green votes splitting the centre-left vote is helping Reform win. Well done Green voters — you’re handing Reform the keys.p

@JackEORobinson Labour said if we didn’t like their policies we could leave. We did. If Labour wanted to retain Wandsworth they should have come up with a better pitch than “we’re ever so slightly less racist and corrupt Tories”
English
Yes, congrats on the Green vote gain in Wandsworth which has handed the council back to the Tories! Well done!
Delia Ramirez Fan 🇱🇧🇺🇦🍉🇨🇴🇪🇺@DeliaRamirezFan
Labour holding up fairly well in Wandsworth as I expected. Greens making good gains in vote share considering we weren't targeting Wandsworth, we'll have to wait and see if it holds and if it turns into seats.

@TrillBroDude He was held at arms length because I suspect Bill saw him as a Skip-type hot take artist. But love him or hate him Nick Wright is a proper nerd about these things similar to Bill and so they can go really deep on topics. The best pods are when sports nerds can nerd out together.

Nick Wright is a top tier Bill Simmons guest. Moving his way up the pantheon.

@INA_TheatreSnob No hate because I think he is great but is it just me that didn’t really understand the awards love for this performance. Like it was a nice role and he performed it well, but I saw it post award and really was surprised it had won. So to see it now Tony nominated is so confusing
