PMQs LIVE: Keir Starmer faces nightmare grilling after sleaze probe vote | Politics | News


Sir Keir Starmer will face MPs at Prime Minister’s Questions after defeating a bid to launch an sleaze inquiry into claims he misled Parliament over the Peter Mandelson affair.

Today’s PMQs will be the last before Parliament is suspended, or โ€œproroguedโ€, ahead of the start of a new session on May 13.

The weekly grilling session is likely to see the Prime Minister face further questions from the Conservatives about the Mandelson scandal.

Tory leader Kemi Badenoch has accused him of misleading the Commons when he claimed due process was followed and no pressure was exerted to grant the peer security clearance against official advice.
