Sir Keir Starmer will not resign today after suffering a double resignation inside No10, a Downing Street spokesman has said.

In a briefing to journalists, a No10 spokesman said: “He is getting on with the job in hand and delivering change across the country.”

The spokesman added that Sir Keir remains “upbeat and confident” following a speech to staff in Downing Street this morning.

Despite speculation about further resignations, the Prime Minister also retains the support of his Cabinet.

GB News understands that No10 is not expecting more resignations today.

However, Sir Keir looks set to lose the backing of Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar.

Mr Sarwar is preparing to call for the Prime Minister’s resignation in a hastily arranged press conference in Glasgow.

Welsh First Minister Eluned Morgan could join Mr Sarwar in calling on Sir Keir to quit, with Labour languishing in third in both Scotland and Wales.

Mr Sarwar’s press conference could focus minds ahead of Sir Keir’s meeting with the Parliamentary Labour Party at 6pm tonight.

Labour MPs have become increasingly restless about Sir Keir’s premiership after the Prime Minister admitted he knew Lord Mandelson visited the home of convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein before he was appointed as the UK’s Ambassador to the US.

A senior Labour MP told GB News: “Starmer has to come out fighting and do what needs to be done to cleanse politics.

“This includes people around him. The sterile test has to be ‘do they have Peter Mandelson’s phone number in their contacts?’

LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:

• Angela Rayner told Keir Starmer ‘not to appoint Lord Mandelson’, allies claim
• Police search Lord Mandelson’s homes as part of Jeffrey Epstein investigation
• Voters demand Keir Starmer quits as PM after Lord Mandelson scandal puts premiership on the brink

“The clock is ticking. This has to be announced and implemented immediately.”

Labour MP Calvin Bailey delivered a stark verdict on Sir Keir shortly before the Prime Minister lost his communications director Tim Allan this morning.

Speaking to GB News, the Leyton & Wanstead MP said: “Part of the problem is that we’ve got a lot of people fixating on the polls daily and perhaps have lost sight of the task that’s in front of us.

“We all said we would put country first, in doing so, we should be putting our country first and getting that work done.”

When asked about whether internal unrest was happening against Sir Keir, Mr Bailey said it would be “wrong” to say there is a “tiny minority” in the party rebelling.

“There is a large majority like myself that entered politics and this Parliament to fix the country, we are very clear and focused about doing that,” he said.
