BBC Question Time audience heckles MP swerving Starmer resignation question
A BBC Question Time audience heckled a Labour politician as he was asked whether Sir Keir Starmer should resign following renewed pressure regarding Lord Peter Mandelson's appointment as US ambassador. The Foreign Office’s most senior civil servant, Sir Olly Robbins, was sacked on Thursday (16 April) following revelations that the department overruled security vetting for Lord Mandelson’s appointment. Sir Keir has since said he is “furious” he was not told Lord Mandelson had failed security vetting and that he will “set out the relevant facts” in parliament on Monday. Fiona Bruce asked Deputy First Minister of Wales Huw Irranca-Davies three times whether the prime minister should step down if he misled MPs. As Mr Irranca-Davies said, “Let's get to the bottom of the facts and understand what exactly has happened rather than leap to a conclusion,” an audience member shouted, “he’s lied.”
