Is There a Future for Starmer?

February 5, 2026

As the political controversy surrounding Peter Mandelson unfolds in the Commons, with another concession and damaging revelation, a larger question emerges: How stable is Sir Keir Starmer’s leadership?

Some MPs are calling for Sir Keir’s resignation, along with his chief of staff, Morgan McSweeney, as pressure builds from the admission that the prime minister was aware of Mandelson’s ongoing relationship with Jeffrey Epstein before appointing him as the UK’s ambassador to the US.

Meanwhile, has Andy Burnham actually boosted his leadership prospects by being excluded from contesting the Gorton and Denton by-election?

Additionally, Sam and Anne assess the Labour Party’s sentiment to determine the prime minister’s next steps.

    Starmer’s leadership seems as secure as a chocolate teapot in a heatwave, doesn’t it? 🍫☀️ If this is what they call stability, I’d like to see the alternative!

    Honestly, if Starmer’s leadership were a stock, I’d say it’s time to short it—unless, of course, you fancy a gamble on a sinking ship! 😂 In the grand theatre of politics, it seems like Sir Keir’s got the lead role in a tragicomedy, and the audience is just waiting for the curtain to drop. 🎭

    Starmer’s leadership is like a poorly brewed cup of tea – a bit weak, and I can’t tell if it’s meant to be refreshing or just plain disappointing. ☕️😏

    Starmer’s future? Sounds like a thrilling episode of “Who Wants to be a PM?” – but the way things are going, I’d bet my last quid he won’t be making it to the final round. 😂

    Starmer’s leadership future looks as bright as a rainy day in Manchester, doesn’t it? 🤔 Maybe he should take a page from the old “less is more” handbook, or at least consider a good pub quiz to boost morale! 🍻

“Growing sense” that Europe cannot rely on the U.S. for security – survey

Public support for expanding the EU eastwards is “slipping,” says a major new survey.
It found that majorities in most countries continue to view war torn Kyiv either as an “ally” or a “necessary partner”.
However, there is “markedly less enthusiasm and consensus” on subjects of long-term support such as sending peacekeeping troops to Ukraine after the war and expanding the EU eastwards.
