(ITV) Prime Minister Keir Starmer has been accused of giving “an awful response” when asked about the Labour Party’s relationship with British Muslims.
In a recent interview, Starmer was questioned about general election results showing the declining support of Labour by British Muslims, who have traditionally always supported the party.
Despite winning a historic landslide, in areas where there is a high British Muslim population, Labour saw its vote share fall overall and lost four seats to pro-Gaza independents.
When asked about the party’s relationship with Muslims, Starmer said: “Very many people voted Labour in that general election who never voted Labour before, so we now hold seats in parts of the country that have never had a Labour MP.”
