How to get rid of Keir Starmer

?Listen to Politics At Sam And Anne's on your podcast app?

Are some Labour skeletons about to come crashing out of the closet?

Keir Starmer needs state visit week to go perfectly, but it’s already had a rocky start with the resignation of one of his most trusted aides.

Paul Ovenden quit after "inappropriate" messages he sent about Diane Abbott in 2017 resurfaced.

Sam and Anne ponder if there are more messages which are about to cause trouble for other senior Labour staffers.

They talk about how the Labour party changed the process to remove a leader.

Also - the first "one in, one out" migrant flights were reportedly cancelled after legal challenges.

And the week hasn’t started brightly for the Tories either – as they lose one of their biggest thinkers, Danny Kruger, to Reform.
