“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”

There's an old saying in politics that "the assassin never wears the crown". Michael #Heseltine is the usual example.

So what's #WesStreeting up to? Today's interview with #LewisGoodall on #TheNewsAgents is less assassination, more frenzied knife-attack on #Starmer. https://youtu.be/8VUDvtZWrtg

I am sure it's very calculated. But what's #Streeting's plan?

Is he trying to be the kingmaker who #Burnham can't refuse a top job?

Or is this part of a longer plan to let Burnham crash and burn?

US President Johnson said 1st rule of politics was learn how to count. Seems that #WesStreeting can't count. 😅

#Streeting plotted for 6 months. But by Weds evening only ~40 of 300 #LabourParty backbenchers would commit. See #TheTimes https://archive.is/IarpF

He might make the 81 from ministers, but that many resignations would be a huge crisis. So he bottled it.

But he'd already burnt his bridges with #Starmer. Now his cred is blown, & his savage resignation letter has shocked.

The same people who backstabbed Jeremy Corbyn when he was Labour leader, are now the same people who are backstabbing each other to become Labour leader, or stay Labour leader. #Starmer #labour #Streeting #PoliticsLive

Lest we forget: Streeting accepted £15k from a donor with huge interests in privatised health care. The Electoral Commission register shows he received the donation from John Armitage, a hedge fund founder & manager who has given over £3million to the Tories. Streeting is an unprincipled Labour #Quisling!

Lest we forget: #Streeting was instrumental, together with a cabal of other #RightWing c#nts, in undermining #Corbyn & in enabling the #Tory 2017 & 2019 election victories! He is an unprincipled #Quisling!
