The revolt on which my companion and I speculated would be a revolt to push Keir Starmer to go further on Europe...The answer is that the pivotal factor may not be geopolitical- and security-related...More probably, it would be the state of the economy over which Labour finds itself presiding as Starmer's government reaches its midterm point.
At present, Labour is keen to lock a future government's relations with Europe in the pre-election long-stay car park...Starmer wants the forthcoming contest to be about Conservative economic failure, not about Brexit. Even Labour's most passionate pro-Europeans have accepted that getting elected must come first.
