LONDON, Feb 9 (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Keir Starmer issued a rallying cry to his staff on Monday, signalling he would not heed calls to step down after a second aide resigned over the decision to appoint Peter Mandelson as ambassador to the United States.
Downing Street Communications chief, Tim Allan, said he was resigning to make way for a new team to support the British leader, a day after Starmer's closest aide, Morgan McSweeney, stepped down over Mandelson's ties to the late U.S. sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
