Do the Starmers need a personal shopper?
from Coffee House Shots
This weekend we had another twist in the story involving Labour donor Lord Alli, who was caught up in a 'cash for access' scandal a couple of weeks back. It now seems he has forked out the thick end of 20k on clothes and glasses for Keir Starmer and his wife. Foreign sec David Lammy was on the Sunday media round and gave a less than convincing defence of the prime minister and Lady Victoria. Has the PM broken the rules already? Also today, Keir Starmer is in Rome meeting Italian prime minister Giorgia Meloni today where they will be discussing boat crossings and Italy's deal with Albania. It’s a timely first engagement for Starmer’s new border security commander Martin Hewitt. Will he succeed in 'smashing the gangs'? Oscar Edmondson speaks to Katy Balls and Fraser Nelson.
