Telegraph, 07 Mar 2023
Paymaster General Jeremy Quin demands in the House of Commons that Labour reveal what the content of meetings with former senior civil servant Sue Gray.
Sir Keir Starmer has refused to say when he first approached Sue Gray about becoming his new chief of staff.
The Labour leader was asked the question six times during a phone-in on LBC Radio this morning but he declined to be drawn.
Ms Gray has resigned as second permanent secretary at the Department for Levelling-Up, Housing and Communities and the Cabinet Office, allowing her to take up a role with Mr Starmer as his chief of staff.
