Excl: Angela Rayner held private talks with Al Carns, the armed forces minister, to shore up her credentials on defence policy before a Labour leadership race.

A reminder: Starmer is presently moving heaven and earth to stop this guy returning to the Labour Party as an MP 🤯



I suspect this story is being briefed out by the same people who briefed journalists earlier this year that they had a 5-4 majority on the NEC Officers' Group then lost the vote 8-1.
