Scots Labour leader 'to call for PM to go' in 2.30pm press conference after ANOTHER No10 chief quits

Keir Starmer faces another huge blow today as he begs for more time in No10 after suffering two major resignations.

In a potentially explosive development, Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar has convened a press conference for 2.30pm. 

He is set to call for the PM to go over the Mandelson scandal, having already told him to stay away from Scotland because he is politically toxic. 
Sir Keir told his remaining Downing Street staff this morning that he was determined to 'go forward' after comms chief Tim Allan said he was 'standing down to allow a new No10 team to be built'. 

The former Tony Blair adviser had only been in the post since September. He had pledged to help Sir Keir 'turn the corner' with a reset but senior Labour sources accused him of being ‘completely useless' and 'embarrassing'.

Grim-faced ministers marched into Westminster this morning, maintaining a deafening silence about the premier's prospects of survival. And

The PM - who has now lost four communications directors in just 18 months - is holed up in Downing Street with no plans for any public engagements today. 

Trying to quell speculation Sir Keir could
simply walk away from his premiership, the PM's spokesman insisted he is 'upbeat and confident' and 'concentrating on the job in hand'.
