The political year opened with a fresh migraine for Starmer: Guido was the first UK outlet to reveal that the Bangladeshi government was investigating Labour’s anti-corruption minister Tulip Siddiq over embezzlement claims following the ousting of her despot aunt. Guido then exposed that Starmer had met the Awami League multiple times, including as recently as December. Tulip was pushed into referring herself to the Standards Commissioner. She promptly resigned…
Guido then sat down with Bobby Hajjaj, the Bangladeshi politician who filed the original complaint against Siddiq. He warned she could be extradited to face the courts. She’s now been sentenced to two years in jail in absentia…

Labour flat-out refused to open a national inquiry. Guido logged every excuse they deployed, including Starmer claiming it was “jumping on a bandwagon” and “amplifying what the far-right is saying” for attention. Yvette Cooper eventually announced five token “local inquiries” into rape gangs. That row rumbled on throughout the year…

Most of what Starmer managed in 100 days was losing his Chief of Staff Sue Gray…
Mid-January, Starmer hastily called a press conference over the Southport murderer, Axel Rudakubana, the day before he was sentenced to a minimum of 52 years in prison. The PM admitted he was updated on Rudakubana “immediately as information became available,” yet insisted “it was not my personal decision to withhold information.” He still couldn’t explain why the public had been kept in the dark. Nigel Farage branded it the “worst cover-up” ever. Guido reminded co-conspirators of all the times Starmer was remarkably quick to label past incidents “terror” when it suited him…
It wasn’t any better for Rachel Reeves. Long-term borrowing costs reached to their highest levels since 1998. That picture only got uglier as the year rolled on…
