JEREMY CORBYN reports from Hiroshima where he represented CND at the 80th anniversary of the bombing of the city by the US

A WHOLE host of top journalists are openly claiming Sir Keir is crap at being PM. These are the very same journalists who only months ago were saying Starmer was super at the job, so this tells us something about SW1 journalism as well as our PM.
For example, Jason Cowley had a column in the Times just before Christmas about Starmer’s first six months as PM, saying that “even Labour veterans are calling it the worst start by a government in a lifetime.”
Cowley wrote that Labour might have had a “strategy to win the general election” but “not to govern.” Or it might be worse: Cowley thought it may be that “they did have a plan, it was incoherent and undermined by factionalism.” This is slightly generous about Starmer’s plan to win the election, as his Labour Party really came into power on a “loveless landslide,” with fewer votes than Jeremy Corbyn, because the right was split between Reform and Tory. But it is an admission from a Starmer-friendly pundit that the PM is in trouble.
