John Sopel

This is a global production.

In that speech, exactly the reason why he has been a failure as prime minister.

It is the world's most painful popularity contest.

He never established any emotional connection with the public.

He was simply a vessel to remove the Tories.

Where is the power?

Who are we looking at?

Are we looking at you?

This used to feel special.

You know, when one prime minister gave way to another, it used to feel like a moment.

Of course, it still does feel like a moment.

But even our pretty short history on this show, I was counting that we've done this four times now.

It's the fourth prime minister we've seen appear before the electorate.

This is where I say correlation, not causation.

I don't think it's our fault or it's anything to do with us, to be absolutely clear.

Just to be clear, the newsagents isn't yet four years old.

Indeed so.

So we're getting through them at a hell of a pace.

And we can talk about the bigger structural things, maybe, because I think a lot of people do want to see those addressed and are wondering why it is that we're going through Primus at such a pace now.

But obviously, just for the moment, this was Keir Starmer's moment.
