Greater Manchester MP and former Deputy Labour leader Angela Rayner has shown her support for Kier Starmer following the fallout of the Peter Mandelson Scandal
Following the call by the Scottish leader of the party for the Prime Minister to step down
Rayner wrote on X
“The recent scandal around Peter Mandelson and Jeffrey Epstein was shocking – and demands that both this government and our party learn the lessons, and act on them.“
She said that a change of leader would be the worst possible response by playing party politics or factional games.
“Labour is only getting started on changing things for the better – our Employment Rights Act, renters’ rights, leasehold reform, free school meals and lifting kids out of poverty.
And Rayner urged
“all my colleagues to come together, remember our values and put them into practice as a team. The Prime Minister has my full support in leading us to that end”
