The reaction was instant. ‘Wowser,’ Nigel Adams MP, a Cabinet Office Minister, wrote on Twitter, adding that Keir Starmer would ‘need some fancy lawyer dance moves to explain this one away’. Foreign Office Minister James Cleverly added: ‘Starmer claimed it was an impromptu curry. Hypocrisy and dishonesty in equal measure.’ Richard Holden, Tory MP for North West Durham, said the leaked memo ‘blows apart what Sir Keir Starmer has been saying all the way through’. However you read it, The Mail on Sunday is Britain’s No1 newspaper for fearlessly breaking the biggest stories.
