Do we play music now or what do we do?
Hello, it's Paddy in the studio.
And it's Henry at home.
I can put it this way, that if he's put up or shut up is what she's effectively managed to do.
Henry, because it's one thing to want him gone, but if this is a freelance leadership bid which is not attached to one of the main rivals, all of whom have been mysteriously silent...
It's not a very easy choice for a disgruntled Labour backbencher to go at the wrong time in the wrong way in the destination that they want to go to.
So you could make a case she won't get 81.
What do you think of my rambling efforts?
So we are in British political history, we'll be said to have gone in chapters, and this is a multi-Prime Minister chapter we're in.
It has happened before, it happened in the 1920s, and it's happening now.
David Cameron said, when we have the Brexit referendum, whatever the result, I'll stay, I'll stay.
Then he left.
Then we had every MP, every Prime Minister available.
But one of the people who was instrumental in getting rid of Boris Johnson, I was told by an intelligent colleague on my Radio 4 programme,
was Catherine West, Henry.
I was told, hang on, she had a role in kebabbing Boris Johnson.
I don't want her looking in on my career.
So the Prime Minister's at work on a speech tomorrow.
This is another speech.
I just wonder what Keir Starmer is doing in the face of this ultimatum.
