This is an incredible story when you read it and discover what actually happened was:
- Lammy paid in advance
- The driver tried to extort him for a massive tip
- Drove off with his luggage
- At somepoint clocked he was a VIP
- Is now selling the story to The Sun.
May 15, 2025 21:10I don't get why The Sun are making such a big deal about a story where the complainant is so unsympathetic? I get that the standard left-wing claim would be "because they're Tories" (which they are, but let's leave that to one side), but how does pushing such an obviously daft story help them?
You’d think they could have found space on the front page to mention their witness had been charged with theft.
