      Look forward to finding out who has given him that £6000.

      What’s the point in giving back £6,000 while you’re keeping the other tens of thousands in similar ‘gifts’?

    3. The-Peel on

      A week ago: “Its not really an issue, the press need to move on from these kinds of stories”

      Now: “Okay FINE I’ll pay back the free gifts, but I’m still not going to stop your nan from freezing to death this Christmas”

    4. GeneralPercentage570 on

      Ok, now it’s the Tories turn to pay back the billions embezzled during covid

      “kier what do you have to say to the allegations you’ve accepted over £30k in gifts and your wife has accepted 4k in gifts?”

      “Fiiine fine I’ll pay back the £6k”

      Sounds like a pretty stupid move. Never appease the right – they never say “Oh, thanks, now we like you”, they just take it as proof that they were right, proof that they can influence you and they still hate you anyway.

    7. Innovatir001 on

      Oops – but somewhat later in the day by Mr Keir Starmer, and only pathetic £6K.

    8. PositiveLibrary7032 on

      Theres that £500K freebie box at the football as well Keir.

      Having taken his 30 pieces of silver, he begrudgingly hands back one piece and some people are demanding we treat him better. Hand the rest back, Starmer, then you could REALLY sock it to the Tories.

      p.s. I’m not right wing and I don’t read the Daily Mail, Starmerites.

      Fuck me the Tories took millions including from the Russians but no one gave a fuck. Can we put this in perspective please

    11. piyopiyopi on

      It’s about sending a message. A message that says. I know I was for sale. And it was wrong. So I’ll find a tiny fraction back and hopefully it’ll blow over

    12. martzgregpaul on

      We not going to mention Tugendhat and Jenrick raking in over £100k THIS month alone from “donors”

      Or Badenoch running her campaign out of her billionaires friends house and not disclosing it?

    13. Dirty_Gibson on

      Nature abhors a vacuum. The Labour Party aren’t owning the news cycle with re-hashed policy statements like Blair did in his first years so it’s being filled with this. Starmer can stop this by actually sharing his great plan with us. Oh what, there wasn’t a plan?

    14. GeneralPercentage570 on

      Gifting a head of state 6k? Probably wrong. Robbing the taxpayer of billions of pounds during a healthcare crisis? – utterly dreadful. All corruption is bad. Agreed, But please acknowledge the monumental difference between someone gifting our PM a few k vs literally robbing the taxpayer of billions.

      It’s a bit like saying ‘violence is wrong’. Sure it is. But comparing Keir to the recent tories is like comparing a slap in the face to firebombing an entire city, and then bitching relentlessly about the slap whilst the city burns around you.

      He never should have taken it.

      He’s a human right lawyer by profession he should know this is dodgy as heck.

      But then again he did say it was OK for israel to starve £2.3M civilians.

      So maybe he’s just completely incompetent. You have to worry for clients he’s defended if he is terrible with law.

    16. earth-calling-karma on

      Self-care Keir taps a week’s salary to make good part of the undisclosed emoluments he is in receipt of, keeps the TatTay Tiks.

    17. Mistakenjelly on

      Kier flip flopping again?

      Last week he said it was perfectly fine to be bought and paid for and living in your donors pocket.

      This week….. not so much.

      Useless spineless cunt that he is.

    18. Spoomplesplz on

      They truly don’t care anymore. “Fine fine. I’ll placate the peasants and give them 6k”

    19. GhostDog_1314 on

      So if he didn’t declare these gifts, there would’ve been outrage. So, to try and stop that, he did declare them, and there was still outrage. So he tried to do the right thing by giving some of it back and being clear about it…..and there’s still outrage. Yeah, I’m starting to think he isn’t the problem here. The general public need to grow the fuck up
