52:38Now PlayingKeir Starmer went into PMQs fighting for political survival, but how do his answers hold up to scrutiny? Reacting to Prime Minister's Questions, Laura, Ava, and Seán fact-check the Prime Minister’s attempt to keep his job as he faces sustained pressure from across the House, with questions from Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch, Lib Dem chief Ed Davey, and SNP Westminster leader Stephen Flynn.
From Badenoch throwing Starmer’s own “I carry the can” line back at him, to Davey accusing him of a “catastrophic lack of judgement”, and Flynn branding him the “most gullible former DPP in history”, this session exposed just how shaky Starmer’s position has become.
A huge focus is the growing scandal around Labour’s top appointments, including the Peter Mandelson fallout and the Matthew Doyle controversy. The trio raise questions about judgement, vetting, and accountability at the top of government.
And is Starmer’s habit of deflection working? He blamed the Lib Dems for austerity, attacked the Tories’ past chaos, and refused to fully own what’s happened on his watch. Is this leadership under pressure, or a Prime Minister refusing to face reality?
