Starmer aides squabble as PM scraps holiday plans

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.
