What are the gifts Keir Starmer is paying back as he raises £6,000 in freebies? And what freebies will the Prime Minister not reimburse?

Sir Keir Starmer has saved more than £6,000 to pay back the freebies he has received since joining Number 10.

Amid a heated row over his and other senior labor ministers’ acceptance of gifts, the prime minister announced he will now cover the cost of tickets and other entertainment.

But Sir Keir is not paying back all the freebies he has received since taking office and will continue to accept donated football tickets.

The Prime Minister had previously argued that while he still had a season ticket at Arsenal, he had been told it was unsafe for him to sit in his normal seats in the stands without the need for a hugely costly police presence.

The north London club will instead arrange for Sir Keir to watch games from elsewhere, such as from corporate seating in the hospitality area whenever he attends games.

Here’s a full list of the freebies Sir Keir is giving back:

• Four tickets and hospitality to see Universal Music Group’s Taylor Swift. Cost: £2,800;
• Two tickets and hospitality for Taylor Swift from the Football Association offered and accepted by family members. Cost: £598;
• Four tickets and hospitality at the Doncaster Races from Arena Racing Corporation. Cost: £1,936;
• Multiple loans of clothing to Sir Keir’s wife Victoria by designer Edeline Lee and the one-off use of a hair and make-up artist. Cost: £839.52.

And Sir Keir doesn’t pay that back:

• Two tickets and hospitality to watch Arsenal v Wolves on August 17th. Cost: £1,000;
• Two tickets and hospitality to watch Tottenham vs Arsenal on September 15th. Cost: £920.

The Prime Minister is also not returning the generous gifts worth tens of thousands of pounds he received from Labor peer Lord Waheed Alli before the general election.

This includes £16,200 for “work clothes”, £2,485 for “several pairs of glasses” and £6,134 for “clothing and personal care” for Lady Starmer.

The links between Lord Alli and Sir Keir have come under scrutiny after it emerged the Labor peer was given a No. 10 seat shortly after the party’s election win, despite apparently not holding a government role.

His passport has since been returned but Sir Keir continued to be dogged by the altercation, which has been dubbed the “spectacle passes”.

Sir Keir said yesterday it was “right” for him to pay back some of the free gifts he received while new principles for accepting gifts from ministers were drawn up.

At a press conference in Brussels, the Prime Minister said: “We came into office as a government of change.”

“We will now present principles for donations, because until now politicians have made decisions on a case-by-case basis to the best of their knowledge and belief.

“I think we need some generally applicable principles.” So I took the position that it was right for me to make these repayments until the principles were in place.

Asked whether the refunds were an “admission” that he was wrong to accept the free gifts, he said: “I can’t say anything more about it.”

When asked a third time, he said, “I can’t add anything more to what I said.”

A Downing Street spokesman said: “The Prime Minister has commissioned the publication of new principles on gifts and hospitality as part of the updated ministerial code.”

“Prior to the publication of the new code, the Prime Minister paid for several entries in his own register. “This will be recorded in the next Register of Members’ Interests.”
