That is pretty amazing as a record, you know, number one at something, ditching our leaders.
Where should Labour go in response to that?
This is probably where I'll break away from the pack a bit.
I am a bit less interested in whose face it is I see and who it is who actually gets a top job.
And the thing that does frustrate me more is there's much less said about what they will do to make things different.
Like we've just been touching on a whole variety of material issues that affect people day to day, whether it's in...
behind their closed doors with their family or whether it's out on the high street or whether it's at work.
There are so many things that need to be done.
And I think the one thing that Keir Starmer has admitted recently
so far this week even, is that they haven't made the progress that they said.
They haven't made the change that they promised.
Yes, they've done some things.
And it should be remembered, by the way, they have done some things.
Often they've done things against their will because Labour backbenchers rebelled and said, actually, you need to change this.
Other things they've done because they got it inherited from...
the Jeremy Corbyn era of labour, then that's on employment rights in particular.
They've also done stuff on renter's rights, which I think actually is very, very good.
It doesn't go far enough, but still, these are things that you can hold up and say these are achievements.
You need to start thinking a lot more about actually restructuring
the economy, so that you're less focused on what some leather-jacketed American comes along and says about data centres and AI, and you're much more focused on what you're offering to the care worker or the barista behind the counter at your local cafe.
