We were told in Labour’s manifesto they would be “setting the highest of standards in public life”.
It criticised the Tories for failing to expel MPs who broke the rules.
For months, Labour sat on the moral high ground. But now Sir Keir Starmer, along with his posse are tumbling down the hill head-first.
First, the Chancellor Rachel Reeves effectively confesses that she didn’t declare the donation she had received from Ian Corfield before appointing him to the Treasury within the required time period.

Then a Labour donor was given a Downing Street pass. And now it emerges that the same donor, who paid for the Prime Minister’s remarkably fashionable wardrobe was also paying for Lady Starmer’s clothes.
But this donation was not declared which means the Prime Minister may have broken parliamentary rules.

The government has feigned ignorance, claiming it believed it was compliant after seeking advice on a different matter before belatedly and begrudgingly making the Lady Starmer declarations.
But Sir Keir Starmer, once labelled by his Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy as “Mr Rules” was the director of public prosecutions, something he boasts about a great deal to show how law-abiding he is. He, of all people, should know that ignorance of the law is no excuse.
But is the Prime Minister ignorant of the rules?
Meanwhile, for the crime of an uneaten cake in a tupperware box, Boris Johnson was dragged through the Privileges Committee’s kangaroo court and then hounded from parliament. Is the Privileges Committee going to investigate Sir Keir?
Surely he deserves the same treatment as Boris had. Unquestionably the Standards Commissioner, Daniel Greenberg, needs to open an investigation immediately.
Starmer paraded himself as the man of righteousness, but now we know he is too mean to buy his wife a frock. His hypocrisy is exposed and dodgy dealing has been revealed.
