    • What's Labour’s next embarrassing U-turn?
    • If Starmer continues to lose the faith of his party and the country, could he be forced to call a general election?
    • The latest opinion polls show Reform slipping to only 2% ahead of Labour, with the Tories 10 points behind. So, is talk of a Labour crisis exaggerated?
    • Why have we seen a rebellion within Labour about welfare reforms, but nothing when it comes to the genocide in Gaza?
