Nigel Farage repeated claims of a "cover up" over the Southport killings after Sir Keir Starmer addressed the nation this morning.

Nigel Farage beats Sir Keir Starmer on who would make the best prime minister, new polling shows. The YouGov survey found that 20% of Britons said the Reform UK leader compared to 19% who backed the PM. Tory leader Kemi Badenoch comes third with 9%, while Lib Dem Sir Ed Davey is next with 8%.

Nigel Farage accuses Government of 'cover up' of terror link to Southport murders - Reform UK leader claimed Reform UK had been blocked from asking questions about potential terror links to the attack

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer vowed on Tuesday to "leave no stone unturned" to uncover failings in preventing the killings of three girls at a Taylor Swift-themed event, saying an inquiry could lead to a change in terrorism laws.

Nigel Farage has slammed the grooming gang scandal as one of the “greatest evils that has ever happened to our country”. The Reform UK leader insisted that “we deserve to know the truth” while speaking to party members at a regional conference in Surrey on Friday.

Keir Starmer has said the Southport killings by teenager Axel Rudakubana 'must be a line in the sand for Britain' and there must be “fundamental change” in how the country protects its children. It comes as the government said they will undertake an inquiry into the 'barbaric' murders of three young girls at a Taylor Swift dance class last year.

The Prime Minister has defended his actions after he was blasted with accusations of being part of a Southport "cover-up" while he admitted knowing details of the attack. His statement has followed his earlier admission that the British state failed the three girls who had been brutally murdered by Axel Rudakubana at a Taylor Swift dance class
