Labour leader Keir Starmer is facing an investigation after failing to initially declare gifts given to his wife by a prominent Labour donor, Lord Alli. The gifts, which covered the cost of a personal shopper, clothes, and alterations for Lady Starmer, were not registered in the MPs' interests register. Starmer approached parliamentary authorities to make a late declaration after receiving updated advice.
Keir Starmer is facing investigation after failing to declare gifts to his wife from a Labour party donor. The gifts, from prominent Labour donor Lord Alli , were not initially declared in the register of MPs' interests. Sir Keir approached the parliamentary authorities on Tuesday to make a late declaration after being given updated advice on what needed to be registered, according to the Sunday Times.
" The guide to the Commons rules states MPs should register "any benefit given to any third party, whether or not this accompanied a benefit for him or her, if the Member is aware, or could reasonably be expected to be aware, of the benefit and that it was given because of his or her membership of the House or parliamentary or political activities". It comes after it emerged that Lord Alli had been given a Downing Street security pass without apparently having a government role.
