Sir Keir Starmer defends Shadow Foreign Secretary earning £200,000 from second jobs

Sir Keir Starmer has defended Shadow Foreign Secretary David Lammy earning £200,000 from second jobs this parliament - but said the rules need to be stricter.

Sky News and Tortoise Media have brought together all MPs' earnings from second jobs and donations into one database for the first time.

Mr Lammy is one of only two Labour MPs in the top 20 earners and he has declared income from more than 40 different sources - the most of any MP - totalling £202,599 since this parliament started in December 2019.
