KEIR'S FOOTBALL FREEBIES

Keir Starmer and his son at an Arsenal match in August

Keir Starmer is to free gear what Novak Djokovic is to tennis, both continue to break records in their respective fields.  One of Starmer's freeloading records relates to football tickets.

Starmer is the MP with the most declared free tickets this year, worth almost £13,000 to date.  This does not include the two VIP seats that Arsenal provided for him after he became PM (and could no longer sit in the stands now he is the most hated man in Britain).  Starmer has been given free tickets by seven football clubs this year, mostly Arsenal's away opponents, and also from the Premier League itself.

Here is the list of Starmer's declared football tickets so far this year...

West Ham United vs Arsenal (February), two tickets donated by West Ham, worth £2,000

Norwich City vs Sunderland (March), four tickets donated by Norwich, worth £820

Arsenal vs Porto (March), five tickets donated by the Premier League, worth £3,000

Manchester City vs Arsenal (March), two tickets donated by Man City, worth £900

Brighton & Hove Albion vs Arsenal (April), four tickets donated by Brighton, worth £500

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Arsenal (April), four tickets donated by Wolves, worth £1,488

Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal (April), five tickets donated by Spurs, worth £2,500

Manchester United vs Arsenal (May), two tickets donated by Man United, worth £1,790

Total: £12,998

It was also the Premier League that gave Starmer four tickets to see Taylor Swift at Wembley, worth £4,000.  Starmer and his wife also met the pop star backstage and she was also given a police escort to the venue, courtesy of the Metropolitan Police - as requested by Home Secretary Yvette Cooper.

The socialist snouts are well and truly in the trough.
