The Daily T
Inside Andy Burnham's far-Left plot to oust Keir Starmer
The Manchester mayor is on manoeuvres: Andy Burnham told the Telegraph that several Labour MPs have called on him to challenge Keir Starmer for the Labour leadership.
Tim and Camilla speak to Tony Diver, the journalist who got the scoop, to ask if Burnham could actually pull it off and about his history as a political chameleon, having served Blair, Brown and Corbyn.
Meanwhile, is another embarrassing resignation in the pipeline for Starmer? His chief of staff Morgan McSweeney is under fire over reports of undisclosed donations.
Conservative chairman Kevin Hollinrake explains why he thinks the police should investigate.
