    A serious mistake in his conduct in public - acknowledged by some: Julian Smith MP @JulianSmithUK The smear made against Keir Starmer relating to Jimmy Saville yesterday is wrong & cannot be defended. It should be withdrawn. False and baseless personal slurs are dangerous, corrode trust &...

    I get the impression that MPs are rather ignoring Jennifer Arcuri - but it could blow up at any moment. And, if this afternoon's failure to take a call from Putin is true, that undermines any faith that he can discharge his duties, even if simply because he is saving his own neck.
