@tompearce49 Starmer is essentially being forced out by a mix of private and public statements of no confidence from within his own party telling him that his continuing at the helm is an ongoing disaster for the party and that if he doesn't step down, a leadership challenge will be forced.
@tompearce49 If as a PM you accept that (generous offer) and you're basically acknowledging that your own party wants you gone and that you're being allowed to resign with some dignity rather than being forced out, you shouldn't get to smash stuff and steal the furnishings on your way out the door.
@tompearce49 Nations clearly need better (popular, imo) ways to recall executives who have broken faith with the electorate or their party. The UK could probably use some sort of caretaker oriented system about now...
