Starmer waited a ‘very long time’ for general election

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer confirms he has waited “a very long time” for the general election on a campaign visit to Abergavenny, South Wales.

The Labour leader joked that the prime minister “thought he was laying a careful trap” by calling a July election, but that “he didn't catch us, he caught himself in his own ambush”.
