He does seem stuck between a rock and a hard place on this though.

The decent thing to do would be resign, but I feel at best all we can expect is for him to convene a meeting. It's all he ever seems to do, but I suppose when your out of ideas and options what else have you got left?

Be interesting to know what it was that led to Mandelson's failing of security vetting.

He should've told the truth and added he thought having one of epstein's chums as ambassador would help British interests with trumps america

I like seeing the sod squirm. One question though: Did Olly Robbins know that the mandelson vetting had failed? Point being if he didn’t know, but as head of the FO service, Robbins fell on his sword, tghen Starmer should do the same.

Kemi also needs to ask what instructions the FO has received from No. 10 in respect of gwetting Mandelson through the process. Obviously, Starmer can’t wriggle out of that.

Starmer can wriggle out of any question by answering another question that nobody asked.

I really don’t know how there can be so much confusion over this. Who was the outcome of the security check passed to? What did they do with that information and who made the decision to ignore it? Whoever that was, I’m sure they will be able to tell us if the PM was informed, and if not, why not?

The fact that they still haven’t got to the bottom of this does indicate to me that something’s being covered up.

All it will take is a disgruntled person close to the coal face to leak a memo or email. Then it will all be over for what is in my opinium the worst prime minister this country has had the misfortune to have voted in. I will say it as i see it "he is a treacherous two faced lying piece of excreta"
