Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has explained why he’d never be friends with the Prime Minister during an ITV documentary.
Responding to whether he and Rishi Sunak would be friends if they’d not gone into politics Sir Keir said despite getting on “alright”, “we wouldn’t be mates – we’re from totally different worlds.”
And this isn’t suprising as the pair often have heated exchanges in the Commons, most recently over the Rwanda Bill.
As the next election approaches, there will be plenty more chances to take swipes at each other.
The Labour leader may not see himself ever becoming friends with the Prime Minister, but what about you?
