Sorry Rafael. Any conversation with any MP who was at the meeting on Monday night would suggest that this is confected rubbish. Starmer has not "failed" to do anything other than not wave a magic wand. Some errors of judgement- @theguardian.com is full of them these days.

It doesn't help that over 80% of the English media has been calling for him to go since the day he took office.

Perhaps Trump wanted to remind people that he’s a racist so they’d stop talking about him being a rapist.

There's an irony in the Tories - who fought tooth and nail not to disclose their WhatsApp messages and private emails handing out enormous public contracts to their buddies - now asking Labour to hand over their comms with Mandelson (which don't appear to involve any public money).

The world’s wrongest man, Daniel Hannan, contending that Trump’s utter unfitness for office only emerged *yesterday*…
Because it’s the only way the irredeemable idiot can cling on to the delusion that he’s not an irredeemable idiot.

To some columnists, they must just assume all journalism is these kind of half-formed thoughts dashed out after lunch to be provocative, rather than months of painstaking work.

The fact that the BBC has made serious culpable errors does not negate the point that there is a real and concerted right-wing media campaign to destroy it. Both points can be true at the same time and the campaign would not end even if the errors did.

Beth Rigby: "Keir Starmer has changed his top team more than I've had hot dinners."
In two years before Starmer we had 3 PMs, 4 Chancellors, 3 Foreign Secretaries, 5 Home Secretaries, 5 Education Secretaries, 5 Cabinet Secretaries, etc. - total 221 ministerial departures.
Maybe Beth is on a diet.
