Keir Starmer will no longer accept donations for clothes


Sir Keir Starmer, Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner and Chancellor Rachel Reeves will not accept any further donations for clothing after a row over donations, a Downing Street source has said.

The prime minster has been embroiled in a growing controversy after it emerged he had repeatedly accepted gifts including spectacles, tailoring and personal shopping for his wife from Labour peer Waheed Alli.

On Friday, the Financial Times reported that Ms Rayner and Ms Reeves declared thousands of pounds in work clothing from wealthy donors as general office support.

The prime minister has maintained he has always followed the rules on donations.
