Summary
Wes Streeting, health secretary, faces a potential Labour leadership challenge against Keir Starmer. Streeting has support from 81 MPs, but is holding back, hoping Starmer will resign. Starmers team denies plans to demand his exit, while Streetings allies urge him to pause due to growing resignation calls. Angela Rayner, cleared of tax issues, could join the race if Streeting moves forward. Darren Jones flips potential backers, steadying the ship for now.
