Oliver Hides takes your calls on Starmer's handling of the Mandelson scandal, rats and Ospreys.

Should the prime minister resign? Are rats an issue where you live? And is it the end for the Ospreys?

Should the Prime Minister resign? Anger is growing amongst Labour MPs over Keir Starmer’s handling of the Peter Mandelson scandal. During Prime Minister’s Questions yesterday, he admitted he was aware of Mandelson’s friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, when he appointed him as US ambassador. The Government is now going to release all material relating to Mandelson’s appointment.

Are rats an issue where you live? Residents in the Grangetown area of Cardiff say rat sightings have increased in recent months. Waste disposal, fly-tipping, and housing conditions have all been blamed for the situation.

And is it the end for the Ospreys? The future of the Swansea-based rugby region is clouded in uncertainty. Swansea Council says it has been told that regional rugby in the city will not exist beyond the end of next season if the Ospreys' owners, Y11 Sport & Media, are successful in taking over Cardiff. The WRU says the council statement is inaccurate, but has confirmed it had received a pre-action legal letter from the local authority.
