About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges facing Keir Starmer as Prime Minister amidst resignations and calls for his departure.

Less than two years into his stint, could it all be over for Keir Starmer? The drama is high after a handful of his government ministers have now resigned, and more than eighty MPs are now calling for the PM to go – so can the Prime Minister continue to hold firm? Beth Rigby, Ruth Davidson and Harriet Harman are back with an extra episode to discuss whether Keir Starmer can keep his job, and who his potential challengers are. Plus – could Andy Burnham be the answer to Starmer’s troubles? Got a question for the burner phone? WhatsApp 07934 200 444 or email electoraldysfunction@sky.uk .
