Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has told GB News that there is “no way” Sir Keir Starmer did not know about Peter Mandelson’s failed vetting process.
Speaking to reporter Keith Bays, Mr Farage said: “I just find the whole thing totally incredible. Incredible. There is no way the Prime Minister couldn’t have known.
“Are you telling me that everyone around him knew and he didn’t know? Well, it’s possible that he’s just a puppet and never consulted on anything, but frankly, it isn’t believable.
“And I do believe strongly that he misled the House of Commons, that he lied to the country especially. He was so definitive in that Hastings speech that all the necessary channels had been gone through, that vetting had been assured.
“No, I think he’s caught in a terrible trap. If there’s a motion of no confidence put down, yes, we would support it, but it’s not going to pass.”
