At least Corbyn kept the support of the Corbynists. Starmer has lost them, and he's loosing the Remainers and anyone wanting electoral cooperation, and he's not winning red wall votes. Starmer is a great deputy but a hopeless leader. For the nation's sake he must resign.
1987, 1992, 1997 - It took 14 years of painfully slow reform & two election defeats for Labour to regain power. With the Tories dragging the UK down the road trodden by Putin and Orban we don't have the luxury of such a leisurely process. We cannot afford a failing Labour leader.
On a smaller scale we can't afford a failing LibDem leader, and that's my view of Ed Davey, who like Starmer is a decent, humane and intelligent man out of his depth as a leader.
Chelsea ruthlessly sacked club hero Lampard and better results have ensued. Labour and LibDems need to adopt the same unsentimental attitude toward their leaders.
