The News Agents · Will Starmer's body count prove fatal for his premiership? · 28 Apr 2026 podcast

I don't think so.

But you're saying that the way he's behaving, your implication is that it is indecent, the way he's firing people, the firing of Ollie Robbins.

And you list that body count outside Number 10 Downing Street of the people who've been discarded along the way, who maybe not have done anything wrong.

Does he need to lay out a process by which maybe he says to reassure that he can carry on for the time being?

That he says, right, this is the process by which I'm going to stand down or I'm going to open the leadership up or whatever.

OK, can he change?

I was talking to someone who was put out to do the morning round.

You know, the minister who had to put the flak jacket and the tin hat on.

Which one are you talking about?

Well, you know, so anyway, there are various people who are asked, do you know how Keir Starmer's doing?

How is he?

You know, how's he feeling?

And they hadn't spoken to Keir Starmer.

And there are an awful lot of people who you think would be politically very, very close to him.

And he doesn't speak to people.

And, you know, so it's not like there is a band of brothers or band of sisters or whatever who are there to kind of get through this together.

It feels like he's I mean, obviously, it's a lonely job being prime minister and the buck stops with you, et cetera, et cetera.

But he doesn't seem like he has that coterie of tight political mates who are there rooting for him.

The Claire Byrne Show · Keir Starmer facing further pressure on his premiership · 28 Apr 2026 podcast

The appointment of Mandelson as ambassador was a serious error of judgment.

I advised the Prime Minister in support of that appointment and I was wrong to do so.
