Labour NEC members request urgent talk with Starmer over his ‘inadequate response to far-right attitudes’
Labour leader Keir Starmer

AN URGENT meeting with Sir Keir Starmer has been requested by a number of Labour national executive committee (NEC) members to discuss his “inadequate response to far-right attitudes.”

NEC member Laura Pidcock said the party’s ruling body wanted to discuss with the Labour leader his reaction to a far-right caller during his “call Keir” session on LBC radio.

Earlier this week, the phone-in heard a woman called Gemma air white-supremacist views and promote a conspiracy theory advocated by racists.
