Pro-Palestine protesters hang ‘Starmer stop the killing’ banner outside Labour leader’s house

A protest outside Sir Keir Starmer’s London home has been branded “completely unacceptable” as the prime minister also condemned those who targeted the Labour leader’s property.

The Young Demand group hung a banner outside Sir Keir’s home that read “Starmer stop the killing” on Tuesday evening (9 April).

This was surrounded by red hand prints. They also laid rows of children’s shoes at his front door.

The Metropolitan Police said the protest was “completely unacceptable” in the vicinity of a politician’s home.

Rishi Sunak said: “I don’t care what your politics are, no MP should be harassed at their own home”.

Three people have been arrested.
