While I do have a great deal of time for her, I also wonder if it's going to be two strikes, you're out.
Meaning, presumably, that having resigned a front bench position twice already, she will be marked as having a lack of staying power/commitment and therefore won't be offered another go , by whatever future PM?
Well, maybe. PM Streeting would definitely have her back, no question, and I think PM Burnham would too. I think even Starmer would as well, if she and him can resolve the issue that supposedly prompted her to resign.
