Labour leader Keir Starmer has stepped up his attacks on Boris Johnson’s handling of the pandemic and accused his government of “serial incompetence”.

Mr Starmer used his “virtual” party conference speech this week to launch a stinging attack on the British Prime Minister’s performance during the coronavirus crisis, telling supporters the Conservative Party leader was “just not up to the job”.
