Labour backbencher defends Sir Keir Starmer after his chief of staff quit
Labour MP Natalie Fleet insists Sir Keir Starmer should stay in position as "the only person that can sort violence against women and girls... is absolutely the prime minister."
The backbench MP says there is still support in the Labour Party for the prime minister, despite his chief of staff resigning over the Peter Mandelson scandal.
Morgan McSweeney has taken "full responsibility" for the former peer's appointment as ambassador to the US, despite his links to Jeffrey Epstein.
