Deputy PM likens Starmer and Rayner to Phil and Holly
Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden has branded Sir Keir Starmer and Angela Rayner the "Phil and Holly of British Politics", as he took on PMQs in the absence of Rishi Sunak.
Mr Dowden said of the Labour leader and his deputy: "It's all lovey-dovey on the surface, they turn it on for the cameras, but as soon as they're off, it's a different story.
They're at each other's throats." His comments came amid reports of a rift between This Morning presenters Holly Willoughby and co-host Phillip Schofield.
