Starmer investigation shows 'hypocrisy' after Labour donor 'pays for wife's clothes'

Former home secretary James Cleverly has called out the prime minister's "hypocrisy" after he failed to declare that some of his wife's high-end clothes were bought for her by his biggest personal donor.

Sir Keir Starmer is facing an investigation over a possible breach of parliamentary rules.

Don't matter whether it's a penny or a pound.
It's still corrupt

Lobbying is A big problem. Selling country for Money has become the trend.

Amazing how dismissive Sky's Trevor Phillips is over Starmer's £76K clothes 'donation' yet shredded Sunak for being in the same room as Boris and a piece of cake. His sickening smug (protective) hypocrisy for his 'dear leader' is off the scale....

NO ONE GETS MONEY FOR NOTHING WHAT DID HE DO FOR THEM TO GET THIS MONEY

[leilahmanson]

This county's problem is that our political system is absolutely bursting at the seams with political parasites who are on the gravy train to get as much as they can for themselves at the same time they shaft the average joe, its only when they are in opposition they criticise, rinse repeat rinse repeat, we need s brsnd new grass roots politicsl system cos this one is DEAD!

Keir Starmer accepted £76, 000 worth of entertainment, clothes and similar freebies from UK donors since the 2019 general election, more than almost any other MP, according to research by the Financial Times, now he shafts pensioners of £300.

‘Some clothes?’ £76, 000 is simply ‘SOME clothes now? It’s quite embarrassing to have to admit the current PM is selling our country for nothing more than ‘SOME’ clothes

[Hullbreachdetected]

Imagine how many elderly homes could be heated from £76000. A person spending that much money on clothes is insanity, that's half of a smaller house. If I was given that much money it would improve so many life standards for me and I could invest the rest in stocks and shares. It would be a big help, but then this woman spends that much money on clothes alone.

[wiseget]

Starmer is as hypocritical as the rest!

[benny]

Doesn't matter if its clothes or wallpaper, there's a matter of principle and to be held to the highest standards in office.

[katrinacarlton]

Why do MPs say hypocrisy when it's clearly corruption 😂😂😂

[TerenceCooper-wo]

I’m sick of these parasites. Every mp telling us we’ve got to make cuts yet got donors and huge wages and wanting a war.

[jacquiesbrood]

76k on clothes for his wife. A lot more than most of us earn to keep a family fed and warm.

[donnabennett]

She should try shopping on vinted…£76.000 for clothes is shameful

[dinaworkman]

Starmer has sorted his own pension pot out

[alanrogers]

Move over, ,,more snouts in the trough

[RobertWallace-qhlc]

Are we supposed to believe Starmer cannot afford to clothe his wife ? £76, 000 is an awful lot of clothes

[MyMargo]

The Labour party needs to grow a pair and give Starmer a vote of no confidence after all the people have no confidence in him.

[paulshaw]

So Starmers wife is basically walking around in clothes bought for her by another man 😅

"Partygate" Labour did the same thing at yhe same time.
