YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAndrew Marr is joined by Labour's Emily Thornberry and LBC's Political Correspondent Aggie Chambre to break down the escalating Mandelson row and what it means for Keir Starmer.
It comes after the former top official at the Foreign Office, Olly Robbins, says No 10 had a "dismissive" approach to Lord Mandelson's vetting earlier today.
Robbins was sacked after the prime minister discovered he did not tell him that Mandelson had failed the vetting process to be the US ambassador.
Downing Street denies showing a "dismissive" approach to the vetting, and says Robbins made an "error of judgement".
In an emergency Commons debate about Mandelson's appointment, the Tories and SNP call for a no confidence vote in the prime minister.
