“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”

In the #IrishTimes, Mark Paul opines that Andy #Burnham will have to offer a big job to Wes #Streeting. https://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.

"The reality is that Wes #Streeting, #AnasSarwar, #AndyBurnham and #JoshSimons are all part of the same political project, on the right of British Labour."

#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.
