Last September, Keir Starmer told Parliament three times that “full due process” was followed over the appointment of Lord Mandelson. We now know the Prime Minister misled the House. The Prime Minister must take responsibility.

The Prime Minister’s people couldn’t defend him in the Commons yesterday At Prime Minister’s Questions he lied about what Olly Robbins said He misled the House He has broken the rules He must resign

The instinct after a crisis in No10 is always to add more process. But the Mandelson appointment wasn't a failure of process - it was a failure of political judgment. The right response to bad decisions is better decision-making, not process paralysis. thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…
