00:00Keir Starmer should absolutely resign. He knew that Peter Mandelson was friends with a notorious paedophile.
00:05He was still staying in his house even after he was convicted.
00:09And he did it because he thought he could whisper in Donald Trump's ear.
00:13Now, if this was just one mistake, I would say it would probably still be a resignation issue.
00:17But we know it's been mistake after mistake after mistake.
00:20Keir Starmer has lost for trust and confidence of the British public.
00:24And it's very clear it's time for him to step down.
00:26It's not enough that he has apologised and he said he was misled.
00:29I don't believe the misled story. I don't think anyone believes the misled story.
00:34I think he said that he vetted Peter Mandelson.
00:36But this is one of the most powerful jobs in the diplomatic service.
00:39And the idea, he just asked him a couple of questions.
00:42We need to remember that Peter Mandelson had already had to resign or be sacked from Cabinet twice for being shamed and disgraced.
