Streeting will not get the members votes. He is all in with private healthcare. For some reason they donate a lot of money to his campaining funds. I can’t think why🤔

Being a murderous transphobe with literal blood on his hand should disqualify @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social from not only the leadership, but from society. Such a man should be shunned from Land’s End to John O’ Groats.

Labour need to establish a position on EU that will steal any traction Reform have. The eighties generation have been left behind as are the recently retired.

Is someone with perceived links to Mandleson really a good look?

Well, one way not to counter Reform is to instantly eclipse the biggest scandal to date on Farage

100%. This is purely about Wes and Wes alone. Zero respect for him. We need people to galvanise to resolve the issues, not form fissures in the heart of govt. This plays into Reform's hands.

Me too & I’ve got a vote in the matter.

I would like to have seen Starmer be as firm on policies as he's been on retaining his premiership. However, no PM is perfect and he's miles better than the previous recent incumbents...

Agree

And the fact that he appears to be a massive transphobe, unconcerned with how many trans kids commit suicide as a result of his policies.

We desperately need someone left of centre and a socialist - not another Blue Labour type.

Wez Streeting lost a lot of respect when he acted so petulantly over the Drs' strike by taking away training places.

Wes Streeting's eagerness to please Palantir while whitewashing his friendship with Mandelson should, in a sane world, be enough to force him out of politics for good. Horrible man.

Well he's gone now. Can't see anyone really trying to take the job at the moment. Pretty sure he's staying put.

I go with Starmer’s choice…

Everything about him disqualifies him in mine.

Nope. Can't agree with you there, Peter. SKS has done the hard yards, now getting into the swing of things. He should stay.

Self interest from Streeting? I’m shocked, shocked I tell you !

Not only has Wes Streeting wrenched the spotlight away from the Farage house purchase story, which should be leading every bulletin, but he's also handed an absolute gift to Little Tommy Ten Names and his knuckledraggers who will be polluting the streets of London on Saturday. Timing is everything.
