Agree, this is an interesting article.
My take on Kibasi saying 'Starmer has potential if he does ...' is that he knows Starmer won't change so he thinks he basically should go, but doesn't want to say so in public.
From someone who was one of his key backers just a year ago, and who is widely respected across the party, it's a devastating critique.
