There's nobody left. He can't just reshuffle the people he's got, several of them are being sacked for cause. And the pool of potential replacements is at best a stagnant puddle that has also been used as a public urinal. They're totally bankrupt of talent at this point, have been for a long time, but now they've got to take that into a GE without a project like Brexit to fall back on and after publicly making GBS threads the bed on every major task they have faced. If Starmer was anything resembling opposition, competent or otherwise, they'd be looking at annihilation.

The following month, she voluntarily recused herself from speaking on drug policy in relation to cannabis after it was reported that her husband's company, British Sugar, grows under permit a non‐psychoactive variety of cannabis which is used in children's epilepsy medicine.[28]

Operation "rally fascists to the Cenotaph" was supposed to be the distraction from that.

This is the distraction from how big a failure that was.

Wait you're telling me that a former drugs minister who had to step down because her husband owned the largest medical weed farm in the UK, due to a conflict of interest. Is now the health secretary, prusumably with the same conflict of interest?

Oh yeah, there is literally only one reason to bring Cameron back in and that's to emphasise to all the Sensible Centrists that Starmer is the sugar free diet alternative to the exact same policies and mindset.

I know people who worked closely with him when he was energy/environment secretary and they all say he is extremely charming and charismatic. One of those people that seems to be able to magically bring a whole room of people with him. When I worked at the Scottish Parliament Salmond was the exact same.

Not sure what this says about anyone to be honest, save to say watch out for very charming and charismatic people.

I've always been suspicious of charming, charismatic people. They're usually up to no good behind the scenes.

During my PhD studies we were also warned off readable, bullet-pointed, well-presented presentations (esp by people in suits) because they were "inevitably hiding something dodgy in their data"

I can see it happening. It won't take much to entirely outmanoeuvre Keith and the Labour right. They have no policies, no talent and no ability to react without a focus group.

I doubt it'll get to that point though, as the Tories are far more likely to self sabotage themselves again with a big old "who can be more monstrous" pissing contest before then.
