He's expected to make a significant address tomorrow.
Will he last till the end of the week?
This seems to be a recurring question in politics when it comes to Keir Starmer.
And I suppose that should be a point that he's making, that at some point there has to be continuity.
We have to actually try and get something done, you know.
And with any big leadership change at the head of government, it creates another couple of months of change and people think he moved around again and very little actually getting done.
And only as recently as this weekend, he was still saying that he wouldn't do a deal with the Conservatives.
Now, you know, I guess he's saying that until he isn't, you know, and we'll see how the numbers come on that.
He still has a long way to go, but it has been a meteoric rise for Nigel Farage from someone who was literally a joke for a long time and seems to be Teflon, nothing more than his friend Donald Trump, that nothing...
No matter how big the controversy, it doesn't seem to stick to him.
I mean, this is the man who was the architect of Brexit that has caused untold damage to the British economy.
And here he is being triumphed as the next potential prime minister.
I mean, it beggars belief.
Yeah, so I just got a push notification just before we came on there that the evacuations had started and as you mentioned, this will be a very strict kind of precision, almost military style operation to get people off the boat and they'll be segregated, small boats, but brought straight into
an area and straight on to Chartered Plains to bring them back to their country of origin where they'll have to quarantine for, we're told, 42 days.
We're waiting to hear whether that will be in a government facility or whether they'll be able to do it at home.
And it really will bring to an end
What I'm sure has been a holiday from hell for a lot of these people trapped on the boat that's at sail, first of all, on the 1st of April.
And it's sadly seen, I think, three of the people who were on board sadly die and eight people contract this disease.
