Today, it fell to parliament to hold Keir Starmer to account for the Mandelson scandal. It largely failed | Toby Helm

On these occasions, MPs have a solemn duty to reflect the public’s anger and need for answers. A pity that so few seem able to fulfil it Around the time of Peter Mandelson’s appointment as the UK’s ambassador to Washington in late 2024, Nigel Farage, our possible next prime minister, said that while he “might disagree with Mandelson on his politics” he was “a very intelligent man”, who would be a good choice for the job. If the Tories raised objections at the time, they are not exactly seared to

How safe is Starmer’s premiership after his Mandelson vetting statement to MPs?

Despite his explanation and the need for political stability, the PM is still unpopular – and Olly Robbins has yet to give his side of the story Labour MPs frustrated with the lack of a clear mission from Keir Starmer’s No 10 have often urged the prime minister to be more forceful in his arguments, to prosecute his values, to find an enemy to define himself against. The prime minister has found one: Olly Robbins. Starmer prosecuted his case against the former Foreign Office chief on Monday with

Starmer the Incurious asks no questions and sees no Mandy-shaped red flags

Appointing an amoral narcissist was the PM’s biggest crime, but he was keen to breeze past it in the Commons Things could be worse. The prime minister can still catch a break. Some had called Monday’s Commons statement Keir Starmer’s judgment day. But that was a category error. Many Labour MPs had long since made up their minds. Keir wasn’t the right person to be running the country. Just that now, with a war in the Middle East and the local elections early next month, was not the right time to

After being doorstepped by a Green canvasser, I know what voters must do to keep out Reform | Zoe Williams

The 7 May elections in Great Britain promise to be a rout for Labour and the Tories. If you need to vote tactically to stop Nigel Farage’s party, make sure you trust your neighbours If there’s one thing I love more than being canvassed at local election time, it’s being canvassed when I’m at someone else’s house. I promise those people the earth. Sure, my friend whose house it is will definitely vote Lib Dem, I tell them; I once saw him make a chicken salad to take on a protest march. When a Gre
