Prime Minister Keir Starmer has clocked up more than £4 million in foreign travel costs in under two years, sparking a fierce political row over the price of 'banging the drum' for Britain.
The latest government transparency figures show a significant surge in international activity, with the Prime Minister completing nearly 40 overseas trips since taking office. The sharpest spike occurred in the final quarter of 2025, where eight trips in just three months saw the taxpayer bill hit £1.2 million.
