“We are way beyond the beginning of the end” Former First Minister of Scotland @NicolaSturgeon says Keir Starmer cannot ‘turn around’ the negative poll ratings and the longer he ‘limps on’ the more terminal damage he will do for the Labour brand #Peston

🚨 NEW: Labour MP Jonathan Brash has called for Keir Starmer to resign over the Mandelson vetting scandal "I am completely fed up. It’s not a case of if – it’s when… I don’t think anyone reasonably expects the Prime Minister to lead the party into the next election"

If nothing else, the decision to sack Robbins, when he didn't need to, must rank as one of the most absurd acts of political self-harm any prime minister has yet committed. All of this eminently foreseeable.

Labour MPs selling shares in Starmer after Robbins' appearance before the Foreign Affairs Committee. One describes his evidence as "utterly devastating - and truthful". "The Burnham train has left the station and everybody will be clambering to get on it," the MP adds. Senior party figure says Starmer should set out a timetable for his departure after the May 7 elections. "Labour can’t make the mistakes the Democrats made. Biden left it too late to go and helped usher in Trump. Keir is helping usher in Farage." huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/5-bombsh…

🚨 WATCH: Olly Robbins says it would have been "very difficult indeed" to block Peter Mandelson's appointment after his vetting "Very publicly, the PM's nominee had been put out there to the public, blessed by the King, agreed by the US Government..."

Olly Robbins not holding back on the pressure he says the Foreign Office was under from No.10 to get Peter Mandelson cleared to become US ambassador. He tells Foreign Affairs Committee: "There was an atmosphere of constant chasing. 'Has this been delivered yet?' Never any interest in whether, only an interest in when."

Scoop from Sky’s @joncraig confirmed - the Speaker has accepted Kemi Badenoch application for an emergency debate on Peter Mandelson under Standing Order 24. Badenoch said: “There remain serious inconsistencies in the government's position.” Will take place after Olly Robbins has given evidence to the Foreign Affairs Committee. Depending on any Urgent Questions and Ministerial Statements, it could start anytime from 12.30pm…
Beth Rigby@BethRigby

Our @joncraig hears that Badenoch is going to ask for an emergency debate tomorrow on Mandelson and vetting process

Badenoch quotes what Starmer said to Johnson over Partygate back at him "[Starmer] said If [Johnson] misled the house he must resign, does he stand by that or is there one rule for him and another for everyone else?"

Local elections PSA for national newspapers that Reform uk DO NOT control Doncaster Council 🚨 They have a majority, but the council uses the directly elected mayor system. Labour won the 2025 mayoral election. The cabinet is 100% Labour. Cabinet makes ~95% of key decisions
