  • Keir Starmer's participation in the G7 summit has raised eyebrows, particularly as he was notably excluded from a new WhatsApp group created by Emmanuel Macron for world leaders. The group, dubbed the G6, was intended for discussions on how to handle Starmer, who is perceived to be nearing the end of his tenure.
  • Amidst speculation about his political future, the summit appears to be a mix of formalities and underlying tensions regarding Starmer's status among other leaders.
  • The G7 summit in Évian comes at a time when Starmer's leadership is under scrutiny, with many anticipating a change in UK leadership. The informal discussions among leaders about how to handle Starmer indicate a shift in the political landscape, as they prepare for a future without him.
  • The dynamics at play during this G7 summit highlight a significant rift between Starmer and his counterparts. The creation of the G6 WhatsApp group signifies a growing consensus among world leaders that Starmer's leadership is waning.
