    It’s not quite so simple. First of we don’t elect prime ministers we elect MPs. Second these were not Westminster elections so we’ve elected councillors and MS/MSPs.

    I have no doubt Starmer’s personal ratings had an effect on the overall vote but it won’t have been the only reason for the vote.

    In my neck of the woods Labour need to be careful about blaming their loss on Starmer and not looking at their own record in Cardiff Bay.
