Sir Keir Starmer was determined not to go down without a fight at this week’s PMQs. Following a week in which The Times ran a piece titled ‘What is the point of Keir Starmer?’ and a widely shared tweet by a Spectator journalist suggested that his “current approach seems to be to agree with Boris Johnson but in a special disappointed voice”, the Labour leader was keen to strike a more combative tone. With little option other than to agree with the PM’s roadmap, Starmer conceded that it was “plainly right” that the end of lockdown should be “cautious and irreversible”, before homing in on the dissenting voices from within Johnson’s own party.
