Bye Bye Keir

I had such high hopes for Keir Starmer and the Labour Government but it seems that they have done all they can to make sure they only one serve on term and the Peter Mandelson scandal has pretty much rubber stamped that Starmer will be lucky to see May out with the keys to Number 10 jingling in his pocket.
Bringing someone who had already been sacked twice was a strange choice but the feeling was that as Mandelson and Trump moved in the same Epstein circles, he would be a good choice as our diplomat to deal with the capricious  American Leader even if it meant, as Starmer admitted, he knew about the links with the now dead pedophile when he appointed him.
Now that it has all blown up in his face, it is hard to see how Starmer can carry on as the Prime Minister but even more worrying for Labour is, there is no natural choice to step into his Hush Puppies.
I was backing Angela Raynor before her tax scandal was exposed so I have cooled on her and Andy Burnham has been blocked  from becoming an MP so he can't do it and the only other alternative is Wes Streeting and he is as popular as a fart in a lift with the other Labour members so successors are thin on the ground.
My suspicison is that he will hobble on until the May 7th Local Elections and then be toppled because nobody will want to take over before then, especially as Labour is expected to be giving a right royal walloping by the general public so heads will be kept low until then so he can be blamed for the poor results.    
The Cabinet seem to be pinning the blame on Morgan McSweeny who was the man who persuaded Starmer that Mandelson would be a good choice and it is he that they are hoping will be the sacrificial lamb but ultimately it was Starmer who had the final say and his excuse that he asked Mandelson about his links with Epstein, and Mandleson lied to him, seem at best extremely weak but in all honesty i wouldn't mind seeing him go, i'm just worried who we will get in his place.  
Unless someone rises unexpectedly out of the pack, i would have to hold my nose and say Raynor but being the least worst option is not a ringing endorsement.
