The article from the Mirror discusses Labour Party leader Keir Starmer's approach to leadership, highlighting his perceived ruthlessness and his ability to make tough decisions, as evidenced by his handling of the situation with Labour MP Kate Osamor.

This incident is used to illustrate Starmer's intolerance for what he considers inappropriate behavior within his party, showcasing his decisive leadership style. The article also touches on Starmer's personal life, mentioning his marriage to Victoria, a Jewish woman, and his commitment to fighting antisemitism, which has been a significant issue within the Labour Party. Furthermore, it notes his broader political strategy, including his focus on economic stability and his efforts to distance the party from past controversies under Jeremy Corbyn's leadership.
