No, Minister: the week Keir Starmer had his own Sir Humphrey moment

Olly Robbins gave MPs a classic civil servant’s performance – and there are lessons from history about how ministers should respond The Whitehall satire, Yes, Minister, was said to be Margaret Thatcher’s favourite TV show due to its proximity to reality, as the programme’s loquacious top civil servant, Sir Humphrey, might have put it. The programme had a familiar groove: there would be a problem in response to which the mandarin would artfully deploy the most astonishing sophistry to avoid blame

Ousting Starmer over Mandelson would be madness – yet it’s open season in Westminster | Simon Jenkins

Defenestration has become the modus operandi in politics, instead of MPs working through the real issues of the day Does the United Kingdom really need a new prime minister? In particular, does it need Wes Streeting, Angela Rayner or Ed Miliband, reportedly lining up to replace Sir Keir Starmer? The answer is surely no, not now and not after whatever the May elections may indicate. A change of government not even two years in office cannot be in the national interest. Yet Britain’s political com

Labour MPs are reportedly urging colleagues to demand Burnham’s return in order to position him as Starmer’s eventual successor If Keir Starmer is looking for a saviour to keep him in No 10 after the May elections and the scandal of the Mandelson saga, there is an unlikely figure in the north-west who might help him – temporarily.

‘This election is all to play for’: Can the Scottish Labour leader defy political gravity in May?

Anas Sarwar speaks to the Guardian about why he thinks the polls are wrong and how he hopes to end the SNP’s near 20-year dominance at Holyrood Anas Sarwar says he is certain he can pull off one of the greatest escape acts of modern British politics.

Two men made mistakes over Mandelson – only one has lost his job. That should haunt Starmer | Gaby Hinsliff

As the bodies pile up and he continues to blame everyone but himself, respect for the prime minister is draining steadily away A good leader never asks their people to do something they wouldn’t do themselves.
