Politics and activism are not the same thing - something Haigh seems not to understand, and which makes her unsuited for front-bench service.
She says that her speech was cleated by Downing Street. If so, plays into the operational competency question of the government. If not true, then I can't see Sr Keir ignoring that comment.

Otherwise, I've heard that she has gone down quite well with the sector and seems on top of her brief.
