At Prime Minister’s Questions Sir Keir Starmer claimed former foreign secretary James Cleverly said “summing up China as a threat in one word” would be impossible.
We’ve looked at exactly what Mr Cleverly said, after he suggested his remarks had been misrepresented by the Prime Minister.
Multiple posts on social media have wrongly claimed that the Prime Minister has pledged to give £40 billion to Gaza to help pay for its reconstruction.
The £40 billion figure appears to actually be an estimate of the overall cost of rebuilding Gaza, which will not be solely funded by the UK.
Videos on social media claim Sir Keir Starmer has announced upfront £10 charges to see an NHS GP, alongside a possible £30 fine for missed appointments.
This is false. There is no evidence there are any plans to implement charges for NHS GP appointments or fines for missing them.
