Starmer admits mangling his words over ‘sausages’ blunder

Sir Keir Starmer said he was prepared to be ribbed over the “sausages” gaffe in his Labour conference speech.

The Prime Minister butchered a call for Hamas to release the hostages in Gaza, instead demanding “the return of the sausages” before swiftly correcting himself.

Asked about the mistake he told reporters: “I just mangled the beginning of the word.”

He added: “These things are there to give you all the opportunity to rib me.”
