Keir Starmer’s Premiership Teeters on Brink 

“Keir Starmer’s future is in the balance after a crisis over the appointment of Peter Mandelson as ambassador to Washington claimed the UK prime minister’s closest aide,” Bloomberg reports.

“Morgan McSweeney quit as chief of staff on Sunday, saying he took ‘full responsibility’ for his advice to hire the Labour veteran as U.S. envoy, despite Mandelson’s known ties to the convicted pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein. He was followed out of Downing Street by Tim Allan, who quit as Starmer’s director of communications.”

“But it isn’t lost on Starmer’s allies and opponents alike that the man who actually appointed Mandelson remains in post.”
