Crisis briefing

Good afternoon. It is one of those days in British politics. We have you covered. Here is a selection of the articles we’ve published. Yesterday morning, Keir Starmer delivered the speech that was meant to save his career – and didn’t. Our political editor called the putsch that evening: “It’s happening”. Sadiq Khan told us that ten years is “not realistic” for Starmer anymore. Jeremy Gilbert has opined that the solution is a caretaker premiership by Ed Miliband. Andrew Murray, a former point man for Jeremy Corbyn, has declared that Starmer will be remembered as a pub quiz question. To understand the way the herd seems to be moving, try Matthew Lawrence’s longread: “The case for Manchesterism”. If you’re not subscribed, join us on our £5 deal here. We’ll have an explosive magazine with you tomorrow morning, featuring an intervention from at least one extremely unexpected guest writer. In the meantime, keep an eye on the homepage and our tracker of Labour MPs calling for Starmer to go. Thank you, Tom
