I believe this article should have its name changed. It's not just a Keir Starmer controversy, it's a government controversy. 82.14.16.140 (talk) 21:21, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
- To "Freebies row" or "Freebies scandal" perhaps, per WP:COMMONNAME? -- DeFacto (talk). 21:33, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
- I do agree with this now there is now reports saying that former Tory Prime Minister David Cameron along with his wife Samantha Cameron accepted freebie clothes paid for with Tory donor cash I do believe as a result this is becoming a controversy outside of the Labour Party as well.

2024 Labour Party freebies controversy → United Kingdom freebies controversy – Former Tory chancellor George Osborne had suggested on the podcast that former Tory Prime Minister David Cameron and his wife Samantha Cameron had received freebie clothes paid for with Tory donor cash to "look smart" which was undeclared at the time. Therefore I do believe that the current controversy is now becoming a wider controversy across the political spectrum. Pikachu3408 (talk) 16:27, 27 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
- Oppose as that, which presumably happened more than ten years ago, is unrelated to the current row. If it was notable and controversial at the time, then perhaps consider creating a new article for it instead of trying to roll it into this one. -- DeFacto (talk). 16:55, 27 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
- Oppose because the current scandal is in and of itself notable and deserving of its own article. The current scandal is happening now and involves the Labour Party. I'm not sure if a separate article (or perhaps a disambig page) involving other similar scandals in the UK is needed, but in any event, this article should remain, and with "2024" and "Labour" in its title. Personally, I'd prefer "scandal" rather than "controversy" in the title, but that's not the topic of this particular RM. -2003:CA:870C:78EA:2A7B:3D46:AD1C:A193 (talk) 23:43, 28 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
