Keir has received over £100,000 worth of gifts since 2019: https://news.sky.com/story/sir-keir-starmer-declares-gifts-and-freebies-totalling-more-than-100-000-the-highest-of-any-mp-13217287 The average cost of a pen is 58p, significantly less: https://www.statista.com/statistics/1445872/average-price-of-a-ballpoint-pen-uk/#:~:text=As%20of%20July%202023%2C%20the,increase%20compared%20to%20July%202018 This post misrepresents how much Keir has received.
