Senior Ministers Had No Contact from Downing Street After Backing Starmer
The Rest Is Politics
542. Starmer Loses His Defence Secretary: What Next?
"We've had no contact, we've had no encouragement, we've had no sense of, you know, what the plan is."
MPs who signed a public letter supporting Starmer at the start of the crisis reported receiving zero follow-up from Downing Street or the Whip's Office. The revelation points to poor political management at the heart of government during a leadership crisis. Campbell characterized this as evidence of old-fashioned political management not being what it should be.
