British PM Keir Starmer's wife attended two Taylor Swift concerts without paying a penny

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's wife Victoria accepted two free tickets worth hundreds of pounds to see pop star Taylor Swift this summer, a report in the Telegraph has claimed.

The news comes a couple of days after 'Wardrobegate' where Sir Keir was accused of breaching parliamentary rules by not declaring a wealthy businessman and donor buying high-end clothes for the Labour leader's wife.

Lady Starmer attended one of the singer's concerts at Wembley Stadium on June 21, alongside the British PM. However, it has now been revealed that sheattended another of the star’s gigs at the same venue on Aug 15, this time without Sir Keir.

10, Downing Street has claimed that Lady Starmer's second ticket had been declared but as of the last update, it had not yet appeared on her husband's register ofinterest.

Notably, the British MPs are required to declare gifts and donations to theparliamentary authorities within 28 days of receiving them.

The tickets were worth $5,283 in total and were paid for by the Premier League. However, it is not known how much Lady Starmer's second ticket was worth.

Apart from her, several high-profile Labour leaders also attended the second gig, includingHealth Secretary Wes Streeting, Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson and Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy.

Lady Starmer accepted free clothes worth $6,603 frommajor Labour donor Waheed Alli. The PM only declared the gifts, believed to have been received both and after he became the PM, last week after believing they need not be added to the register.

“All MPs get gifts. The rules then say, over a certain value, you’ve got to declare the gifts, so everybody can see what it was, how much it was, who it came from, and so that you and others can ask questions about it. That’s a good framework. It’s the right framework," said Starmer.

“That’s why I asked my team to make sure we’re complying with the framework, which is why they reached out for advice on what to do in this situation. When they got further advice, they made the declaration. I think it’s really important everybody else follows the rules," he added.

A Conservative Party spokesperson called for a full investigation over "apparent serious breaches of parliamentary rules".
