Starmer: Azhar Ali suspension proves Labour has changed
Sir Keir Starmer has defended the suspension of Azhar Ali, a Labour by-election candidate, over a recent anti-Semitism row.
The Labour leader adds the party is "fundamentally different " to the one in 2019, with the evidence being its double by-election victories in Wellingborough and Kingswood.

Sir Keir Starmer has unveiled a pledge card with six "first steps" the Labour Party would take if it were to form a government after the next general election. The steps include measures to invest in the NHS, education and policing, to set up a new national energy company and an elite border force, and to promote economic stability. The move, unveiled during a campaign speech in Essex, is reminiscent of Tony Blairās five pledges ahead of Labourās landslide victory in 1997, and less favourably of Ed Milibandās promises carved into stone in 2015.
