YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Earlier today Morgan McSweeney, formerly Keir Starmer's Chief of Staff, appeared before the Foreign Affairs Committee; thrust out from the shadows and into the spotlight to explain his role in the appointment of Peter Mandelson to Washington.

Laura, and later Ava, is joined by special guests Banseka Kayembe of Naked Politics and Curtis Daly of Turn Left Media, as the former dives deep on the overseas aspect of the affair and the latter turns to the Westminster politics of it all.

Emily Thornberry was once again chairing the committee, at one point asking McSweeney if he'd ever heard of "jobs for the boys", as the former Chief of Staff not only had to answer questions about the Epstein-linked Mandelson, but also Matthew Doyle.
