Are Sir Keir Starmer’s u-turns the sign of a wea and indecisive leader or evidence of someone willing to change their mind and listen to reasoned arguments?

The Prime Minister has backtracked, to a greater or lesser degree, on cuts to winter fuel payments, whether or not to hold a national inquiry into grooming gangs, and now disability benefits.

He’s also told His biographer Tom Baldwin in The Observer that he regrets previously suggesting that Britain was at risk of becoming "an island of strangers" because of migration… a speech carrying echoes of Enoch Powell and which provides the theme for this month’s print edition of Byline Times.

In a conversation on the Byline Supplement to mark its launch, Byline times executive editor Peter Jukes was joined by editor in chief Hardeep Matharu and political edtor Adam Bienkov.

Produced in Birmingham by Adrian Goldberg.
