But that's not what I'm anticipating.
But the next few weeks are going to be very, very tricky.
You know, speaking to Labour MPs this morning after Keir Starmer has spoken, saying that he's not going to walk away and that this is about the pace of change.
This isn't about the pace of change.
This is about a rejection of what Keir Starmer has been doing and a rejection of him.
So, you know, they'll want to see a plan pretty quickly from him, but it's very up in the air.
any kind of plan coming from Keir Starmer and whether that can actually placate anyone on the back benches.
And I think that was always going to be the case.
I think the question that has been kind of answered today is had reform peaked?
Because there is this kind of, you know, bit of belief around Westminster and around politics that actually Farage has a limit because there are very strong feelings about him on both sides.
Those who love him absolutely love him.
Those who hate him find him absolutely abysmal and could never vote for him.
So there is a kind of, you know, strain of thought, which is that they have had reached their high watermark.
That clearly now isn't the case.
But what we should be really, really clear about is that that is almost a threat to Farage as well as an opportunity because we are now moving into a time where reform are going to be tested.
They're going to be running things more than they ever have before.
And, you know, when these elections come round again or at the general election, those other parties will have something to point to to prove their record.
Look, I don't know, that might prove that they are running things very well and people are very happy with it.
But it could equally go quite dramatically the other way.
