Episode description
Ian Collins unpacks the latest with The Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer as he faces intensifying pressure after reports he pushed Peter Mandelson’s appointment despite security warnings and procedural objections. Sacked Foreign Office chief Sir Olly Robbins is expected to tell MPs ministers knew the risks and he followed convention. The row has deepened Westminster turmoil, with opposition leaders demanding resignations and Labour figures questioning Starmer’s judgment, candour and authority.
