In family politics latest Keir Starmer’s office has just acquired a new SpAd. Jason Keen, who started a fortnight ago in Downing Street, worked as the BBC’s senior political affairs adviser before becoming assistant private secretary to Prince Edward and Sophie. Not the first time a royal courtier has made the jump into Downing Street, though Keen has one more qualification to help him into the job…
Guido is told by MPs that Keen is the husband of Aldershot’s Labour MP Alexandra Baker – something the pair quite studiously avoids mentioning. Another layer to the spouse of cards…
Red Wall Labour backbencher Jonathan Brash told GB News that Starmer should resign:
“I’m completely fed up about it, and I think it’s got to the point now where I genuinely think that, as far as the Prime Minister is concerned, it’s not a case of if, it’s when.”
