End of days for Starmer as ally demands resignation

Keir Starmer was probably hoping today would be another chance to reset his premiership, following the departure this weekend of Morgan McSweeney, his chief of staff.Instead he's been hit first by the departure of Tim Allan, his director of communications, and then by Anas Sarwar, the leader of Labour in Scotland, who became the most senior figure from his party to urge the PM to resign.Camilla and Tim speak to Lee Cain, former director of communications to Boris Johnson, to find out what it is like to be in Downing Street as a government comes to an end. They also react to the news that Thames Valley Police are assessing claims Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor forwarded sensitive information to Jeffrey Epstein while he was trade envoy.We want to hear from you!
