Keir Starmer has committed to doing “the right thing and step down” as Labour leader in Britain if he is fined by police over an allegation he broke Covid-19 laws.
The opposition leader repeatedly denied breaking the laws in a televised statement on Monday afternoon as he faces pressure over the curry and beer gathering in Durham last year.
