I was dubious that Darren Jones was telling the truth about what the Cabinet Office said yesterday. He's been backed by Cat Little. This would be quite the blow to Robbins, wouldn't it?

And Karl Turner and Jonathan Bash's response to this is to go after the PM?

I know Alex Wickham used to work for Guido Fawkes, but he's done more than The Guardian to be fair.

What the flying fuck does this mean?! Lots of policies seem to be happening, despite the PM apparently doing everything wrong. Stephen Bush has been on this "Starmer doesn't know how to do anything" kick for yonks now. The big thing here is he said "no pressure existed whatsoever" and what? Bear in mind, Stephen Bush has as much idea what happened as anyone else who wasn't there.

What are these multiple mistakes? Appointing Mandelson, fine. What are the rest? How do they compare to being hauled over the coals for what seems to have been a misleading splash?

So Karl Turner and Jonathan Bash haven't managed to keep the story going? Is Sir Keir allowed to spend more time on geopolitical crises till Monday? Or more likely Sunday, when the session with McSweeney will be described as "a bombshell happening tmrw"

Another bombshell we've all missed.

The appointment of Mandelson which the PM approved, very obviously, wasn't actually approved because someone can't find a piece of paper? Mini-scandal that there's no coming back from apparently. Perhaps these can all be added up and together and count as a scandal? And somehow we'll get to the equivalent of "Starmer knew all about the failed vetting, resign!"

Do love these types….

At this point they have zero interest in seeing anything they don’t want to see. Considering Little totally contradicted Robbins who was held up as a smoking gun when it wasn’t.
