(Picture: GETTY IMAGES)Welcome back to today’s Londoner’s Diary: First up we hear CCHQ fear Andy Burnham and want Sir Keir Starmer to stay in power. Later on Nicky Haslam gives his view on Carrie Symonds and Lulu Lytle, comic London Hughes argues Britain’s television establishment is “politely racist”, and Emily Maitlis says women “have taken the lion’s share of responsibility” on childcare during the pandemic. In our SW1A today we hear rumours of a high-profile political figure buying class A drugs.
