There are more important things going on in the world.

I paraphrase and we've got to crack on and do this job.

And that is effectively what the prime minister, we are told, had said at the cabinet meeting.

And it was a kind of few lines from what the prime minister said.

He said the same.

He said, look, there hasn't been a Labour leadership contest triggered.

I appreciate the last few days, in his words, have been destabilising.

But effectively, I've got a job to do and I'm going to crack on and do it.

And you heard that echoed from the cabinet ministers that did choose to come over and speak to the media.

But not all of them did.

And I think that is just worth reflecting because, as Chris said, it wasn't just Shabana Mahmood, as far as we understand it, who had had words with the prime minister.

expressing some concerns about his position.

Yeah, so what we've had really since the election results is,

is a number of Labour MPs coming out and either saying they think the Prime Minister should go now or they should set a timetable for his departure.

And we were discussing on Newscast on Monday about how the number of those MPs actually now was stretching across different wings of the party.

It wasn't just one certain section.

Then what we had today was a letter or a statement from 100 Labour MPs who were saying, no, not now, do not go, Prime Minister.
