Starmer has come in for fierce criticism after it emerged Lord Alli, a Labour peer and millionaire, had given him £16,435 of work clothing and glasses worth £2,400 before the election, as well as £5,000-worth of clothes for the PM’s wife, Victoria.

Sir Keir Starmer will no longer accept clothes donations following a row over several gifts to his wife from Labour peer Lord Alli, according to reports. Deputy PM Angela Rayner and Chancellor Rachel Reeves will also follow the leader of the Labour Party's decision.
