British Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy told US Vice President JD Vance that he was wrong to link the murder of teenager Henry Nowak to mass migration. Lammy said he spoke with Vance by phone after the American vice president's social media post, in which he attributed Nowak's death to migration. BBC News ↗
According to published reports, Lammy described Vance's intervention as wrong and warned that such involvement was not helpful. The case has become part of a broader political debate in Britain, where issues of migration, public safety, and politicians' accountability regularly surface in disputes between the government and the opposition. teraz.sk ↗
At the same time, Lammy also responded to questions about the future of Prime Minister Keir Starmer at the helm of the Labour Party. He said Starmer would run if a contest for the party leadership were to begin. The Prime Minister has repeatedly rejected calls to resign and says he wants to remain at the head of the party. svet.sme.sk ↗
The topic also touches on internal Labour Party debates, in which the name of Andy Burnham has also come up. However, the available information does not indicate any new specific reaction from Burnham to Lammy's remarks or to Vance's intervention. Further developments will depend on whether the pressure on Starmer turns into a formal contest for the party leadership. RTE News ↗
