A general view of the front door of No 10 Downing Street, central London, August 5, 2024
SIR KEIR STARMER has scrapped holiday plans amid reports that Downing Street is in the grip of a factional war between top aides.
Number 10 confirmed that the Prime Minister had cancelled his holiday and would be spending the week working at Downing Street and his country residence, Chequers in Buckinghamshire.
Ostensibly this is to avoid being spotted on a sun lounger while emergency services and the courts are working overtime dealing with the aftermath of the fascist riots and to be on hand should violence in the Middle East escalate further.
Just as German Social Democrats joined the Nazis in singing Deutschland Uber Alles, ANDREW MURRAY observes how Starmer tries to out-Farage Farage with anti-migrant policies — but evidence shows Reform voters come from Tories, not Labour, making this ploy morally bankrupt and politically pointless
