Anyone else find it funny that Sarwar decides to break cover and denounce Starmer but appears to have chosen the wrong day?

modern politics really has a dearth of intelligent folk

maybe his advisors told him today was the day

He clearly had support  from somewhere and agreed to break rank first to have a pop at Starmer and then it all backfired on him.

Did the same thing not happen with Douglas Ross, when Johnson was PM.

I am sure someone else will break rank, as I think this whole Mandleson story still has more to come in the coming days, I think that's why they holding off.

Starmer is a sitting duck and someone is waiting for the right moment to finish him off.

Only a matter of when.

Sarwar is looking at taking a hiding in May and is trying to shift the blame. Yesterday was purely an act of attempted self preservation and a very poorly executed one. 
 

I suspect the reason that nobody else put their head above the parapet is that they also know that Labour are likely to lose in the upcoming coming by election and have a terrible result in May elections so they are as well leaving Starmer in place to take the blame and punt him afterwards.

Just saw Wes Streeting described as ‘The offspring of Ruth Davidson fucking Thomas the Tank Engine’ 

Anyway, it looks like it was him that encouraged Sarwar to commit political seppuku.
