PRIME Minister Sir Keir Starmer faced further criticism today for failing to “take responsibility” over his government’s negative press briefings as the head of the Civil Service was forced out of his job.

The embattled PM has been accused of scapegoating Sir Chris Wormald to “save his own skin” following weeks of political turbulence amid the latest Mandelson scandal.

There have been a string of negative reports over the top mandarin’s performance despite the PM appointing him just 14 months ago.
