Brighton witnessed a surprise visit on Sunday from Keir Starmer, the leader of the Labour Party. Starmer spent time with Councillor Bella Sankey, the Labour Councillor for Wish Ward and Leader of Brighton & Hove City Council, as well as Tom Gray, a founding member of the rock band Gomez and Labour’s candidate for Brighton Pavilion in the 2024 general election.
Councillor Sankey expressed her delight at Starmer’s visit, saying, “It was so nice to welcome Keir Starmer to Brighton Pavilion today in support of Tom Gray. I’ve known Keir for 20 years. He has integrity, is kind, and fiercely smart. He will be a transformative Prime Minister. Let’s get him elected & turn #Brighton red!”
