On a day of intense political pressure, Labour backed Keir Starmer after Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar urged him to quit; Ed Miliband said it must be a turning point for the party and that Starmer deserves time to renew the government.

Ed Miliband, Labour's shadow net zero secretary, has stated that he did not consider resigning over the party's decision to abandon its pledge to spend £28bn a year on green projects.
