Starmer takes on Farage | BBC Newscast

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has used his conference speech to attack Reform UK's Nigel Farage saying he “doesn’t like Britain”.

The prime minister warned against “the politics of grievance” and said that the UK is at a “fork in the road”. In response Nigel Farage has accused Starmer of being an unfit PM.
