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.
