Starmer Says He’s Staying
Today, Keir Starrmer has said he will “get on with governing” despite another day of increasing pressure on him to resign from the Labour party.
Four ministers resigned on Tuesday, and more MPs have called for the Prime Minister to stand down. But so far no formal leadership contest has been triggered.
Meanwhile more than 100 MPs are understood to have signed a statement backing the PM, saying "this is no time for a leadership contest". Adam, Chris and Alex reflect on whether Starmer can survie the pressure.
