    “Andy Burnham’s new defence secretary is now responsible for the military treaty with a country he believes exhibits ‘rogue state behaviour’”

    [..]

    “Late last July, as a famine unfolded in Gaza and Israeli settler attacks intensified in the West Bank, Wes Streeting texted a friend shortly before midnight.

    “‘Israel is committing war crimes before our eyes,’ the then health secretary told Peter Mandelson over WhatsApp”

  2. In the #IrishTimes, Mark Paul opines that Andy #Burnham will have to offer a big job to Wes #Streeting. archive.is/wDwWU

    Probably true. Who wants Streeting outside the tent, pissing in?

    Paul suggests Chancellor or #ForeignSecretary.

    Streeting's love of private equity would make him a scary Chancellor.

    But Foreign Sec could be interesting. The v talented young Palestinian Leanne Mohamad is ready to take Wes's #IlfordNorth seat, so Wes would have to be very tough on Israel.

  3. #WesStreeting for leader of the so-called "#LabourParty"?

    #AngelaRayner's tax tangles are unresolved. #AndyBurnham is still out of Parliament. Of the three main leadership hopefuls, only #Streeting is ready.

    So if #CatherineWest triggers a leadership contest, Streeting may win.

    I hate Streeting's politics, but I was struck by #OwenJones & #AaronBastani toying with the idea that a Streeting leadership might be helpful, since it would speed the destruction of the rotten Labour Party.

    Well this is quite the headline:

    "Doctors lose new jobs package as strike to go ahead"

    No, they didn't "lose" it. Looking down the back of the sofa will not help.

    The government made an active decision to take new jobs away from junior doctors.

    This surely puts an end to any possibility of believing that Starmer's government wants to fix the NHS.
