Conservative MPs have launched a fierce demand for an official inquiry into Sir Keir Starmer's past dealings with rogue states while serving as Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP). The allegations suggest that the Labour leader engaged in undisclosed negotiations with nations considered security threats to the UK.
Security Concerns Raised
Documents reportedly reveal that Sir Keir, alongside former Downing Street chief of staff Jonathan Powell, held secret talks with representatives from countries such as Iran and Libya. These discussions allegedly took place without proper oversight, raising serious questions about national security protocols.
Political Fallout
The revelations have sparked outrage among Tory backbenchers, who argue that such negotiations could have compromised Britain's security interests. "These clandestine meetings demand immediate scrutiny," stated one senior Conservative MP. "The public deserves to know whether proper procedures were followed."
Labour's Response
Labour officials have dismissed the claims as a politically motivated smear campaign. A party spokesperson insisted that all interactions were conducted within legal frameworks and aimed at promoting international legal cooperation.
The controversy comes at a sensitive time for Sir Keir, who has positioned himself as a staunch defender of national security ahead of the next general election.
