Starmer calls Farage's move a desperate stunt
People will hear fresh political attacks as the row continues. Keir Starmer said on 7 July that Nigel Farage's decision to resign so he could contest a by-election in Clacton was a desperate stunt, adding that politics should focus on improving millions of lives rather than personal benefit. He also said Farage was "up to his neck in sleaze" and referred to dodgy donations.
