'Pathetic!' Former Thatcher aide slams Starmer for quoting Iron Lady in 'partygate' debate
Margaret Thatcher's former aide has taken to social media to call out Sir Keir Starmer after the Labour leader quoted the Iron Lady in the Commons during the debate on Sue Gray's report.
Mr Gardiner, who worked as an aide to the Iron Lady from 2000 to 2002, said: "Keir Starmer has the cheek to quote Margaret Thatcher while launching an attack on a Conservative PM.
"Lady Thatcher would have viewed the Labour leader as a pathetic woke socialist whose party was committed to blocking Brexit and defying the democratic will of the British people."
Sir Keir Starmer, who served as the Shadow Brexit Secretary under former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, was alleged to have made no fewer than 48 attempts to block Brexit.
