Lisa Nandy calls Labour's recent week unforgivable

Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy gave a candid interview regarding the government's recent political struggles. She described the situation involving Peter Mandelson and Jeffrey Epstein as "unforgivable" rather than just a chaotic mess. This follows Prime Minister Keir Starmer surviving demands to quit from Scottish leader Anas Sarwar earlier this week. The current administration will undergo a significant trial during the by-election in Gorton and Denton scheduled for the end of the month.
