MADRID, 13 Jun. (EUROPA PRESS) -
A committee of the British Parliament has begun this Monday to investigate the leader of the opposition, Keir Starmer, for allegedly violating the code of ethics of the House of Commons when declaring the obtaining of gifts and other gains.
The news has come to light after the Parliament's own page updated the information and pointed out that Kathryn Stone, in charge of supervising these matters in Westminster, is analyzing whether the deputy violated two articles of the parliamentary code of conduct.
Labor Party sources have indicated that the investigation focuses on a series of statements made by Starmer himself, who has assured that he has not violated the regulations, according to information from the newspaper 'The Guardian'.
Stone will investigate whether the deputy's financial interests, as well as any gifts and benefits received, have been properly recorded. "I absolutely trust that there is no problem", she has nuanced.
