A limpid biography at its finest... interesting and necessary Oliver Rhodes, ReactionWhen Keir Starmer won the Labour Party Leadership election in April 2020, the expectation was that he would quickly become a fierce Leader of the Opposition. Instead, his performance was not as sure-footed as his supporters had hoped for, or his opponents feared. Nigel Cawthorne attended Starmers grammar school a few years before him (and David Walliams).

Good on his legal career, and grammar school new to me. Andrew Sparrow, Senior Political Correspondent Guardian
