Senior Labour sources have confirmed that Durham Police have NOT been back in touch with Keir Starmer over beer footage after a tough interview in which he swerved the question four times.
The Labour leader accused the Conservatives of "whipping the issue up" and "mud-slinging" as he said the police had concluded their investigation months ago.
Mr Starmer did not confirm or deny if the police had been in touch with him, after Tory MP Richard Holden urged the police to reopen a probe into the Labour leader’s conduct during lockdown last year.
