Starmer: Azhar Ali suspension proves Labour has changed

Sir Keir Starmer has defended the suspension of Azhar Ali, a Labour by-election candidate, over a recent anti-Semitism row.

The Labour leader adds the party is "fundamentally different " to the one in 2019, with the evidence being its double by-election victories in Wellingborough and Kingswood.
