SIR KEIR STARMER is overseeing social cleansing in his constituency, the independent left candidate challenging the Labour leader in the general election said at the weekend.

Andrew Feinstein, the South African former ANC MP fighting to unseat the Labour leader in Holborn and St Pancras, held a rally in front of the office block outside which Camden council, the local authority, had just evicted homeless people in favour of large potted plants.

“Keir Starmer, the Labour Party and the council think they can push out human beings and replace them with bike racks and plants,” he told a rally of his supporters.
