PM says government will 'look at every conceivable way' to stop Gerry Adams payout
Wednesday, 15 January 2025 Sir Keir Starmer has said he will "look at every conceivable way" to stop former Troubles internees claiming compensation after a report warned ex-Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams is in line for "a payday from the taxpayer".
At Prime Minister's Questions, Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch says: "Inflation was 2% when Conservatives left office, 2%, it's now nearly double that. When will he recognise that it’s Labour's budget driving up inflation?" Sir Keir Starmer says, “we are taking measures to bring prices down”, citing the government’s trade deal with the EU.
