I seem to recall that Dan Jarvis was being talked of as a possible next Labour leadera few years ago, but he wasn’t interested as he has a young family. Not sure he’s interested now.

Classic clever man here, the editor of the Yorkshire Post.
Labour's last chance: hokey-cokey politics is suspending the nation in an hallucinogenic purgatory of faux progress ... but one man could save this Government
It's paywalled so I don't find out (alas) who this saviour is. From the opening my guess is that its Dan Jarvis, Who's certainly got the backstory, but he's not yet even been in the Cabinet.
Dan Jarvis has been Minister of State for Security since the election and was the Shadow from 2023. No idea if that's who the Yorkshire Post have in mind, or if he's up for it, but a former Para officer would bring some useful experience in these volatile times.
