British Prime Minister Keir Starmer says he will never walk away from his mandate, amid mounting pressure on his leadership over the appointment of former ambassador to the US Peter Mandelson.
“I will never walk away from the mandate that I was given to change this country,” Starmer says. “I will never walk away from the people that I’m charged with fighting for, and I will never walk away from the country that I love.”
