This is my message to Wes Streeting
Dear Mr Streeting I am supportive of your ideas about re- joining the European Union some time in the future however I do not support the idea of having another referendum about the issue. In my opinion this is just about hedging your bets and seeing what will happen. This is entirely what David Cameron did and we all know how that worked out for him.
Following on from the devastating results in the local elections showing huge gains for Reform, the question is how can Labour defeat Farage in the next General Election? Currently the Labour Party are divided on this issue which has given rise to speculation about the leadership of Sir Kier Starmer. Currently the Labour Party is noticeably divided on the issue of the Party leadership. Many in the Labour Party now see Starmer as a dead duck and no hoper. They are suggesting that Starmer should be making a timetable to step down as Party leader. Variously hopes are being pinned on various candidates such as Rayner, Burnham or Wes Streeting. However would just a change in leadership be enough to stem the tide of voters currently flooding towards Farage’s Reform? Or is the issue more complicated than that or has politics just become just a cult of personality? Also we ask why has Starmer become so unpopular with voters and why are voters making assumptions about the capability of Farage to make positive changes where other politicians have failed?
