Laura Kuenssberg

And Wendy says, I, like many across the political spectrum, feel a sense of unease as we stand at the cliff edge of yet another change of prime minister.

And the reason why we can say more strongly on Sunday morning than we were able to look ahead to yesterday, that we may well be on the verge of Keir Starmer going, is because for weeks Keir Starmer and his allies have been saying, I'll fight if there's a contest, I'll carry on.

This morning, this is what the cabinet minister, Peter Kyle, had to say.

Now to decode that, that is a cabinet minister saying plainly that the prime minister might be off.

It's Laura in the studio.

It's very nice that you're here with us in person.

I mean, who knows, there might be some big events for you to report around.

So rather than you being at home, it's probably quite good that you're in the office and in the newsroom today.

I think that's absolutely right.

And as I understand it, I think actually the mood really started to change even on Friday afternoon when Downing Street and some Starmer briefers and allies were still sort of saying things like, we can beat it and we think that we can do it.

We're looking for office space for a leadership campaign.

It feels like all the air has gone out of that briefing.

You know, those sort of calls you get from people saying, oh, yes, we're still going to go on.

It feels to me like that balloon has just completely popped.

And sometimes in Westminster, it's the silence that is telling.

or the pauses.

So should we listen together to a longer chunk of how Peter Kyle presented, trying to be diplomatic and not preempt the Prime Minister himself, but yet signal very clearly to everyone who was watching that his time might be up?

Is it still true that he would fight a leadership challenge?

You say he's now reflecting on what to do.

That is a very clear signal that he is thinking about resigning or spelling out a transition to Andy Burnham.
