Who could replace Starmer and how could they do it? | ITV News

Tom and Robert discuss how much trouble how much trouble Sir Keir Starmer is in, who could replace him as PM and how Labour chooses a new leader.

It follows the latest relation that Downing Street’s former Director of Communications Matthew Doyle was given a peerage, despite him campaining in 2017 for a councillor who had been charged with child sex offences.

At Prime Minister’s Questions, Starmer said Doyle "did not give a full account of his actions" before he was made a Lord in January.

Doyle has had the whip removed and apologised. In a statement he said: “I want to apologise for my past association with Sean Morton. His offences were vile and I completely condemn the actions for which he was rightly convicted. My thoughts are with the victims and all those impacted by these crimes.”
