Olly Robbins Sacking Sparks Scandal

The testimony has plunged Prime Minister Keir Starmer's government into a deepening crisis over the failed vetting of Lord Mandelson for the role of U.S. Ambassador.

Robbins alleged that senior aides demanded he 'just f***ing approve' the hire despite significant security concerns linked to Mandelson's past associations.

The scandal has led to calls for Starmer's resignation and raised questions about his judgment and the integrity of the civil service.

As a leak inquiry into the disclosure of Mandelson's vetting files begins, the Prime Minister faces increasing dissent from within his own cabinet.
