Keir Starmer has positioned himself as a model of propriety in politics, yet he's facing criticism for accepting freebies that contradict his campaign message of accountability.
Starmer's promise was to do politics differently, as the antidote to Tory corruption, but his acceptance of gifts raises questions about his commitment to that stance.
Being in government seems to create an environment where politicians easily fall into pitfalls, and Starmer's early missteps highlight the difficulties of maintaining integrity.
Though Starmer's transparency about gifts shows a desire for accountability, it ironically puts him under the same scrutiny he vowed to escape, blurring lines between sincerity and political strategy.
