Is it too little, too late for the Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer?

That's the opinion of Labour MP Catherine West when describing Starmer's speech on Monday, as he fought to save his job following a bruising set of local election results and subsequent calls for his resignation.

On this week's Talking Politics, Tom Bradby and Robert Peston look at whether there is a future for Starmer as PM.

Describing Friday's local election results as tough, Starmer claimed the country was facing both "dangerous times" and "dangerous opponents".

"If we don't get this right, our country will go down a very dark path," claimed the PM.

"I know people are frustrated by the state of Britain, frustrated by politics, and some people, frustrated with me," said Starmer.

"I know I have my doubters, I know I need to prove them wrong, and I will."

Over the weekend, Labour MP Catherine West spoke out, issuing an ultimatum that if a member of the cabinet had not challenged Starmer over the leadership by Monday, she would gather the 81 signatures to launch one herself.

Her most recent words appear to back down on this, but still build momentum on pressuring the PM to depart.

Ms West said she is gathering the names of Labour MPs to call on Sir Keir Starmer to set a timetable for the election of a new leader in September.
