This is The Guardian.

If Labour messed this up, then the chances are we have a Nigel Farage government.

I know that people are frustrated, and some people frustrated with me.

Kirstarmer promised a gesture, but it wasn't a holiday to the Bald Eves it was like a 399 bunch of roses from the garage down the road

for a lot of labour and peace something needs to change the question is what and when this kind

of whole game theory that a lot of what you do depends on what other people do and it's

very very hard to predict very fast moving we're still in this deadlock really. Kirstama is fighting for his political

been in the days since the elections, which weren't so bad for Labour on Thursday.

There are a lot of Labour MPs who are very, very, very peeved with the way things are
