YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Tom Swarbrick is joined by former Prime Minister Liz Truss to discuss Olly Robbins’ sacking, government accountability, and whether our system is 'broken'.

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.
