Rod Liddle: UK Correspondent on the pay drama surrounding the former Chief of Staff Sue Gray

The UK Prime Minister’s chief of staff has quit her role, saying she “risked becoming a distraction”.  Sue Gray was caught up in a conflict over pay, after the BBC revealed that her salary was higher than Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer’s.   UK Correspondent Rod Liddle told Mike Hosking that this is quite a remarkable decision.   He said that in the last six to eight months, Starmer hasn’t sacked anyone despite there being calls.  Liddle says the howl within his own camp had become so grave that he could do nothing other than accept the resignation.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
