UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has issued a rallying cry to staff and is insisting he won't step down.
Downing Street communications chief Tim Allan has quit saying he wanted to make way for a new team.
It was after Starmer's chief of staff Morgan McSweeney's quit, taking responsibility for advising Starmer to appoint Peter Mandelson as US ambassador.
Starmer addressed staff at his office, saying they must prove politics is a force for good.
UK Correspondent Rod Liddle told Mike Hosking Starmer’s been a disaster, but he hasn’t left before, and he’s not going to leave now.
He says he’s aided by the fact that the next election is three years away, so he can always say things will improve greatly over that time.
