Labour MPs Plot Coup While Starmer’s Popularity Hits Cholera Level
On 26 November, UK Labour’s budget day might come with a tax hike, breaking their manifesto promise—a move so popular among MPs it’s inspired blatant plotting against leader Keir Starmer. Kitty Donaldson’s eye-watering 'Friday piece' revealed backbench murmuring about replacing Starmer, despite him supposedly being 'safe in post.' A new Labour MP described the Parliamentary Labour Party (PLP) as 'feral,' citing botched reshuffles, awful poll ratings, and the heartbreak of stabbing manifesto integrity in the back. Frontbenchers circulated this gossip on WhatsApp, with one warning pension tax breaks cuts could alienate 'the last f*cking voters with young families,' while another said door-knocking revealed Starmer’s popularity is 'about as popular as cholera.' Even Peter Mandelson got a mention, presumably as an unwanted spectral witness.
