Keir Starmer’s communications chief, Tim Allan, has quit.
Not reshuffled. Not sidelined. Gone.
This comes as the Mandelson scandal tightens its grip and Starmer’s inner circle collapses in full view of the public.
First the Chief of Staff.
Now the Comms Chief.
Ministers hiding.
Silence from the Cabinet.
This isn’t “bad optics.”
This is institutional panic.
The appointment of Peter Mandelson detonated inside No.10 — and now the fallout is claiming scalps at the very top.
When the Prime Minister’s own messaging operation walks out the door, it’s because the story is no longer containable.
No amount of spin can save a government when:
• Security warnings were ignored
• Trust has collapsed
• And accountability is nowhere to be found
When the people paid to defend you won’t even stay — the end is close.
This isn’t a wobble.
It’s a breakdown.
The truth is moving faster than the cover-up.
