Labour says Starmer’s 2020 leadership campaign paid McSweeney salary
Party says aide’s participation did not need to be declared by Labour Together group he previously headed
Labour has clarified that Morgan McSweeney’s salary was paid by Keir Starmer’s leadership campaign in 2020, after fresh attacks from the Conservatives on Wednesday.
The Tories have called for a parliamentary investigation into whether Starmer failed to declare support – including staffing costs – from the campaign group Labour Together for his leadership campaign.
