SNP Calls for Investigation into Lord Alli's Donations to Keir Starmer

The SNP demands a probe into gifts and privileges given by Labour peer Lord Alli to Prime Minister Keir Starmer and other Labour MPs.

  • Lord Alli has provided Prime Minister Keir Starmer with £32,000 worth of clothing and the use of an £18 million penthouse.
  • The SNP has written to the House of Commons standards commissioner, urging a full investigation into the nature and impact of these donations.
  • Additional clothing donations worth £16,000 to Starmer were recently revealed, originally declared as funds for his private office.
  • Lord Alli's donations have sparked comparisons to the 2009 Westminster expenses scandal, raising concerns about public trust and accountability.
  • Starmer has defended the donations, stating all rules were complied with, but the controversy has overshadowed Labour's recent party conference.
