Peter Mandelson ‘lied, manipulated and deceived everybody,’ said Steve Reed in a staunch defence of the prime minister and his chief of staff
The prime minister and his chief of staff Morgan McSweeney are safe in their jobs, Steve Reed insisted.
Asked whether Keir Starmer’s position is secure, the housing secretary told BBC Breakfast: “Of course it is.”
On Sky News, he was pressed on whether McSweeney is safe in his role, after being blamed by many Labour MPs for pushing for the appointment of his ally Peter Mandelson as UK ambassador to the US in 2024.
Reed answered: “Yes, of course he is.”
