If Rachel Reeves goes, the honeymoon is over. The marriage is under enormous stress barely one year after the May 2024 General Election. The knives are being sharpened. Despite the fact that Angela Rayner stated on television that "she has no intention to replace Keir Starmer", a rebellion of not less than 128 MPs is no mean business. Moreover, many of those now standing as Independent used to be Labour Party MPs.
Things are more serious than they actually look. Several Muslim MPs now standing as Independents used to be Labour Party MPs. This means than sooner than later we are going to see a new political party defined along religious and ethnic lines. Ethnic voters are turning against the Labour Party. Blacks and Asians no longer see the Labour Party as their natural home. Actions taken by the official Labour Party in matters concerning geopolitics are not very popular. Ethnic voters have no reason to swear allegiance to a white Metropolitan Labour Party that leans in favour of Israel, despite what amounts to genocide and mass murder.
Going against the vulnerable and supporting violations of basic human rights, the present Labour government is digging its own grave.
