Davey: Only way to draw a line under this scandal "is for Starmer to go"

Responding to Olly Robbin's appearance in front of the Foreign Affairs Committee where it was revealed Starmer tried to make his former Director of Communications, Matthew Doyle, who had publicly supported a paedophile, an ambassador, Liberal Democrat Leader Ed Davey said:

“This is incredibly damning for Keir Starmer.

“Not content with appointing Peter Mandelson as US ambassador despite his links to Epstein, he tried to appoint another man with a known friendship with a sex offender.

“This is not just a lapse in judgement, it's a pattern of behaviour.

“Every day this scandal gets worse, and it becomes clearer that the only way to draw a line under it is for Starmer to go.”
