Just under three months ago, on 4^th July, the UK Labour Party achieved a landslide victory, obtaining 411 parliamentary seats out of a total of 650 seats – a majority of 174 over all other parties. Brimming with enthusiasm and firing on full throttle, ex-barrister Sir Keir Starmer became our new Prime Minister. With no hesitation, he appointed ex-banker Ms Rachel Reeves to the all-important position of Chancellor of the Exchequer, and ex-care worker and trade union representative Ms Angela Rayner to become his Deputy Prime Minister.

The Labour Party’s landslide victory has been credited to pre-election advice offered to the Party by ex-Prime Minister Tony Blair’s Director of Communications (spin doctor), Lord Peter Mandelson, sometimes cruelly referred to as the ‘Prince of Darkness’.

It struck me that the initials of the first name of these four people form an exciting acronym – KRAP. I would point out, however, that any homophonic relationship with another word that sounds the same but is spelt differently is purely accidental and the acronym is not intended to cast aspersion or disrespect on the four honourable members of Parliament nor on the Party they represent. It’s pure coincidence, but if the Labour government is looking to rename itself, KRAP is an available option.

Just a thought…
