How safe is Sir Keir Starmer tonight?

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

Some Labour MPs have been calling for the Prime Minister to stand down, particularly in light of yesterday's extraordinary and lengthy debate in the Commons on the appointment of Peter Mandelson as US ambassador. And others have - publicly - put him on notice. 聽One backbencher tells us his colleagues need to learn from recent political history. Also on the programme: The newspaper that brought to light the Watergate scandal - The Washington Post - lays off hundreds off staff. 聽What does it reveal about the state of the media in America? And the small scale Norwegian film with nine Oscar nominations: the director Joachim Trier tells us more about "Sentimental Value", and why European cinema is thriving.
