Starmer jokes about Lord Alli row as he woos Wall Street investors
Sir Keir Starmer made a joke about his use of Labour donor Lord Alli’s central London penthouse as he met with US business chiefs in New York.
The Prime Minister, who is looking to attract investment in the UK, said of the UK consul general’s residence: “I’d like to pretend this is my apartment to welcome you to.”
Sir Keir made the quip after it emerged that he had filmed a Covid-era broadcast urging the public to work from home in Lord Alli’s £18 million penthouse in Covent Garden.
