Sunak said he was ‘completely shocked’ by the murder of Brianna, expressing his ‘heartfelt sympathy for her entire family and friends’, but added his remark was targeted at the Labour leader, Keir Starmer. The prime minister said: ‘To use that tragedy to detract from the very separate and clear point I was making about Keir Starmer’s proven track record of multiple U-turns on major policies, because he doesn’t have a plan, I think is both sad and wrong, and it demonstrates the worst of politics’.
