PMQs: Get your house in order, Starmer tells Johnson - BBC News
The Labour leader says the public has lost confidence in the PM, but Johnson says Starmer is playing politics.
Quite often PMQs does not quite live up to the hype.

Yesterday’s rebellion, as a parliamentary occasion, was a hard act to follow – and the result of tomorrow’s Shropshire by-election may be a better guide to the mood on the Conservative benches than today’s showdown at Westminster.

Even victory in the by-election may not be quite enough to calm nerves – with one MP with his ear to the ground predicting a "humiliating hold" - small majority, low turnout.

Today’s battle was fought for Labour on the territory of leadership, where the ground has shifted in recent weeks in their favour.

For the prime minster the focus was on delivery – he emphasised the booster programme’s progress here compared to those in other countries, and this enabled him to recycle his "we vaccinate, Labour vaccilates" line.

There is, of course, no shortage of hopefuls to succeed the PM in the unlikely event that he took Sir Keir Starmer’s advice to "look in the mirror" - though, as one former cabinet minister pointed out privately, the lack of one obvious successor could mean Boris Johnson will remain in his refurbished No10 flat longer than the Opposition expects.

And as the Omicron variant continues to run rife, voters’ attention might increasingly turn to what the government is doing to respond, rather than obsessing over who is leading that response.
