For many months I’ve been scrutinising Keir Starmer’s operation to find out how he turned it into a winning electoral force (including being able to get big majority with lower vote share). Here a piece today & v soon my book from @HarperNorthUK on how this election was won&lost
'After Labour's hammering in the 2019 General Election, no one expected Starmer to be walking into Downing Street as prime minister today, just five years on.'

Watch this it’s fascinating - I asked James Timpson what he’d do about prisons and sentencing if he was in charge. He believes only a third of prisoners in jail should definitely be there. He’s now in charge of prisons (but not sentencing).
