Labour leader Keir Starmer and Prime Minister Rishi Sunak went head to head in a debate on the BBC ahead of next weeks general election

The Labour leader Keir Starmer has slammed the Prime Minister for Partygate in the debate on the BBC ahead of next week's general election.

Speaking to the live audience Starmer said: "Last week in the Gambling Commission, we saw Partygate earlier in this parliament.

"The Prime Minister himself was convicted and fined for breaking the rules, which he brought in and imposed on everybody else.

"Of course, we've seen what happened with the Covid contracts and the huge amounts of money that were made. This takes leadership.

"What I did when one of my team was alleged to have been involved and investigated by the Gambling Commission was suspend them within minutes."
