Overview
- Starmer said Farage must swiftly address allegations of xenophobic and antisemitic conduct at Dulwich College reported by the Guardian.
- He accused Farage of failing to act over Reform MP Sarah Pochin’s TV remarks about adverts “full of black people, full of Asian people,” which she has apologised for.
- Farage denied the historical claims and a Reform spokesman called them “entirely without foundation,” citing a lack of contemporaneous evidence.
- Responding to Starmer, Farage called the “spineless” charge “utterly ludicrous” and said voters will judge both leaders at the ballot box next May.
- No formal disciplinary action against Pochin has been announced, keeping the issue active as parties position for the next general election.
