"I never turn on my staff when they make mistakes."
"I've accepted responsibility and apologised for the mistakes that I made. Morgan McSweeney helped me change our party and helped me win a landslide election victory which delivered for them the smallest Tory party in over 100 years. And what's her great achievement? To make it even smaller."
"In January, she said she had full confidence, 100% confidence she said, there'd be no more defections from her party. 48 hours later, the shadow foreign minister defected. Eight days after that, the former home secretary defected. The only question now is who's next? She needs to wake up. Her party is dying."
"Matthew Doyle did not give a full account of his actions. On Monday, I promised my party and my country that there will be change. And yesterday, I removed the whip from Matthew Doyle."
Kemi Badenoch opened PMQs by confronting Keir Starmer about his response to staff mistakes and the status of his chief of staff, Morgan McSweeney. Badenoch questioned why Starmer had supported a peerage for Mathew Doyle despite past controversies linked to a councillor charged with indecent images. Starmer said he had accepted responsibility for his mistakes, credited McSweeney with reshaping the party, and attacked the Conservatives over recent defections. Starmer confirmed he had removed the whip from Matthew Doyle and pledged change within his party in response to the revelations.
