"The prime minister's decision to send Lord Mandelson to Washington is like a horror film for Sir Keir Starmer, stuck on repeat. The whole saga has now cost another person their job."
"The opposition parties quickly concluded there must be something in the Guardian's claims, and one after another they appeared in front of the cameras to claim the prime minister had misled the House of Commons."
"Neither the prime minister nor any minister had any idea this was the conclusion that had been reached, it said. Those opposition parties returned to the cameras and microphones."
"Sir Keir is, I understand, absolutely furious. The prime minister will address Parliament, probably on Monday, to address this and what he knew and when."
The prime minister's decision to send Lord Mandelson to Washington has resulted in turmoil, including the resignation of Sir Olly Robbins. Following a Guardian report on Mandelson's failed security vetting, opposition parties accused the prime minister of misleading Parliament. The government initially denied knowledge of the situation, prompting further scrutiny. The prime minister is expected to address Parliament regarding the matter, as tensions rise within the Labour Party and among opposition leaders, particularly with Sir Keir Starmer expressing significant anger over the developments.
