Yep, a crucial element. There was no problem too solve. They had a pro in place. But they had to play Westminster silly buggers.
It is worth recalling that the position of U.K. Ambassador to the US was not vacant at the time the Prime Minister chose to appoint Peter Mandelson to the role. A highly competent and respected woman was replaced.

"[Peter] Mandelson betrayed our country, our Parliament, and my party"
Speaking at PMQs, Starmer accused Mandelson of betraying the country and lying to Downing Street about his relationship with paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5hyjbx4hnlxe5il24ydnn4sr/bafkreihp2cm5bwnszzsllu27zsba37f5ylrn3k75hhi2viwdmo6r6bunmq@jpeg)

We all knew Mandelson was the wrong choice but as Starmer took a gamble, we put our trust in Starmer to do the due diligence, and took the gamble with him - @mrjamesob.bsky.social
The gamble failed
Most of us liked Starmer in opposition, but the decline of Labour has been under Starmer

Farage is frit. He knows he's going to lose this by-election and that the result will wreck his narrative nationally.
Also, he's happy yelling at his mindless acolytes, but put someone up against him who won't take his bullshit and will keep asking awkward questions and he's useless.

In this week's column I seek to explain Keir Starmer's flat refusal to change our electoral system, even though its gross unfairness could put Reform UK in power on <30% of the vote. The reasons, I believe, are deeply cynical and disturbing. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Whilst everyone is talking about Mandelson and Fergie and Andrew and Epstein, let's not lose sight of the fact that Farage is a weapons-grade piece of shit who is going to destroy the UK and must be stopped at any cost.

This should be carved on the political tomb of every Reform politician. In short - we saw some stuff on the internet, we assumed it was true, it wasn't.
So his “lapse of judgement” seems to be that he said:
“we haven’t cut front-line services other than what the Conservatives had already planned to do”
So Kent-Dodge was itself a waste of money and effort? Everyone told them that before they started
