Chris Mason and Beth Rigby pin down helpless delivery driver emerging from Number 10

Political editors Chris Mason and Beth Rigby had to be dragged away from a helpless delivery driver after they pinned him down and demanded answers about Keir Starmer. 

With the entire British press gathered outside Downing Street today hoping to get a scoop on Keir Starmer’s future as Prime Minister, Mason and Rigby seemed to get a little too excited about what the delivery driver had to say. 

“One minute I was leaving Number 10 and then the next I was pinned down with all these microphones in my face,” said Deliveroo driver Simon Williams, being treated for scratch marks by nearby paramedics. 

“I told them I was just there to deliver some Wagamama’s, but they wouldn’t believe me. They kept asking me whether Keir Starmer would resign and what the other cabinet members said in the meeting this morning. I told them I barely got past the coat rack, let alone the cabinet room. 

“It was awful. They grabbed my arms and threw me to the ground. I’m pretty sure Chris Mason bit me at one point. Rigby was more of a scratcher than a biter, which I think I preferred. Thank God Nick Robinson wasn’t there. He probably would’ve throttled me until I gave him a headline.

“Let me tell you, I better get a big tip after this ordeal. I know the government hasn’t got any money, but I’ve put my life on the line to bring them that katsu curry.”
