It really was touch and go for Starmer on Monday.

Sky News was streaming a live shot of the front door of Number 10 in case he tried to slip out with his sunglasses on or something.

First, in a meeting with Labour MPs, Downing Street released some of the prime minister's comments.

So that included, I'm not prepared to walk away from my mandate or my responsibility or to plunge us into chaos as others have done.

So it just, you know, all sounds very prime ministerial.

Yesterday morning, he met with his cabinet colleagues and then faced some members of the public.

There was an appearance at a cost of living event.

Yeah, here's a clip of him just really trying to get that back on track.
