There's a fundamental question that nobody is asking: Who runs the country? Am I seriously being told that all the state departments, the Foreign Office, the Home Office, the Treasury, etc. Are a law unto themselves? What does #Starmer actually do then?

@dick_turpin either way Starmer should go. He's either lied or completely incompetent.
I struggle to buy that an FCO civil-servant would make such a decision with out being pressured in advance, or consulting via an undocumented back channel.
And then after it all blew up. You'd have thought the PM might actually go and find out the details. To which it seems he trusted 'a process'. The guy really have no political sense.

@dick_turpin it also feels like he running out of people to blame of it all too.
Can't wait for one of the people he's fires to turn around and stab him in the back.k
