As the prophecy foretold
“I don’t care if he’s the Chair of the Defence Select Committee”
A churlish and ill-tempered outing from Wes Streeting at the Despatch Box as he undermines Tan Dhesi and the Labour-chaired Defence Select Committee that holds the Defence Secretary to account.
This is entirely the wrong tone to adopt.

Shame there wasn't a budget recently

The budget was yesterday. They did nothing. He is lying to you.
He doesn't want to cut it. Or he would have done.

Yesterday. The opportunity was yesterday.
He’s taking us for fools.

Imagine the CHANCELLOR giving up on bringing the welfare bill down. What's the point?
NEW: John Healey tells @krishgm the government will NOT bring the welfare bill down during this Parliament
Chancellor says: “it's not correct to say that we're going to bring this welfare bill down in this Parliament”
But in the same interview he says the system is “broken”

Governing by vibes latest
NEW: John Healey has rejected Andy Burnham’s position on the UK rejoining the EU
Burnham has said he’d like to rejoin in his lifetime
Healey tells @krishgm: “I’m older than Andy Burnham. I don't expect to see that”
He seems to be opposing rejoining in the foreseeable future

John Healey resigning over the 3% of GDP for defence issue in spring '26 and then deferring that same decision as chancellor until 2027 is embarassing.
His resig letter said that the Starmer gov was, "unwilling to commit the resources the nation needs to defend the country".
