‘He is a friend of mine’: Albanese backs Starrmer amid calls for his resignation

[00:00:00]There is another senior Labour person who's rock solid behind Keir Starmer, but I don't think it's going to help much. Have a listen.

[00:00:07]He is a friend of mine and and I hope that Keir Starmer continues to serve as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. He was elected a relatively short period of time. I've dealt with four Prime Ministers of Great Britain since I was elected as Prime Minister.

[00:00:28]And the revolving door of leaders does not lead to stability.

[00:00:36]Four Prime Ministers in four years.

[00:00:39]Sounds like that revolving door is still swinging, Sophie.

[00:00:44]Well, it is, Chris, and it could be it could be up to seven Prime Ministers in 10 years. And the message to Anthony Albanese is you might find yourself dealing with a new Prime Minister because Sir Keir Starmer is in a lot of trouble, Chris, and Catherine West, the Australian Australian British British citizen, who has called for his head, she's the one who really kicked this off. So, it's expected he will deliver his speech today and then there could be a formal challenge. If that's the way the experts are saying it will go.

[00:01:16]Fantastic stuff to have you on the scene, Sophie.

[00:01:19]Good luck with the busy day ahead.
