What is going on?

Sam and Anne share notes on the late night WhatsApps chats following a day of briefings about Keir Starmer’s future (and the WhatsApps keep coming as we record) 

The message from the PM’s team was if there’s a leadership challenge (from the someone in his own cabinet or elsewhere) - he’d stand and fight. 

Allies of Team Starmer have pointed a finger at Wes Streeting.  

He’s denied any plot and has got an opportunity of the morning round to bolster that. 

As one government figure said to Sam - “bonkers”. If the PM doesn’t trust the Health Secretary – how does he stay?
