Karl Turner, Labour MP for Hull East, and Dan Hodges, commentator for the Mail on Sunday, discuss the latest Westminster psycho-drama as Sir Keir Starmer maintains his control of his job - for now.
Morgan McSweeney, Downing Street Chief of Staff, resigned on Sunday - triggering speculation that the PM could either resign or face an imminent leadership challenge.
But on Monday, his cabinet team unanimously expressed their continued support for Keir Starmer. That included both Angela Rayner and Wes Streeting, who are both widely tipped as potential usurpers.
Also: Karl Turner MP on what happened at a meeting between Keir Starmer and the Parliamentary Labour Party last night,
Whether Keir Starmer is motivated by public service,
If there should be a general election if we change leader,
Dan Hodges on what we might see from the continued release of texts between Mandelson and government ministers,
And whether potential leadership challengers - Wes Streeting, Angela Rayner and Andy Burnham - are ready for any leadership challenge.
