Wes Streeting NOT to run against Starmer - Update

Daily Mail: Reports " Wes Streeting and Keir Starmer will hold crunch showdown meeting tomorrow over Labour's week of 'turbulence'... but will the health secretary use it to climb down over leadership bid? "

Let's Get Real:

The tone of the article suggest that Streeting will NOT stand against Starmer, that the meeting is just a show that he can tell his supporters that he has talked to the PM and said things have to change.  There is nothing worse than political cowardice, he had the chance today to set off his campaign and keep the King of the North up North.   The failure to ACT will haunt him, the history is written by winners and those that take RISKS.   After today Streeting is busted flush, no will support him in the future, leaders LEAD, and if your chosen candidate is WEAK there will be others who will take the fight to Starmer, the King will have to find a safe seat and win a by-election to get back to the House of Commons.   There are a lot of ifs in the above, someone called it fantasy politics.   Thus Starmer will be with us for the duration.

Catherine West withdraws Leadership Challenge - Update

Noted: REAGAN on Netflix, excellent movie, just felt it left out, the Reagan dark horse candidacy for the 1968 Republican nomination.  The electrifying 1976 Speech to the Republican Convention.  The the Reagan visit to Moscow and his walk with Gorbachev in red square in 1988.

BBC News: Reports in its 12.06pm post that the Labour backbencher has withdrawn her challenge.

Let's Get Real:

The Labour Party has flunked the leadership challenge to Sir Keir Starmer, the Labour MPs are out of touch with voters, Cabinet Ministers care more about the perks of being in the Cabinet. The cars and civil servants to protect Ministers from making fools of themselves.  If Reform win the next General Election, today is the road that started the process.

US intelligence disagrees with POTUS - Update

CNN: Reports the following, " Exclusive: US intelligence assesses Iran maintains significant missile launching capability, sources say  "

Let's Get Real:

The above article shows that POTUS is living in his own Universe, he says something and thinks it is REAL, if the US Cabinet had a spine it would invoke the 25th Amendment to the Constitution and remove Trump as President, they are all YES men to POTUS, he can be erratic and there is nothing any one can do, why the US voters re - elected him is a mystery.  Roll on 2028, and a new President will be elected, saner than Trump one hopes.
