The Leader of the Opposition, Sir Keir Starmer has had a meteoric rise from his humble beginnings in a small Surrey town. The Starmer household was a busy three-bed occupied by his parents’ four children and four dogs, and in 1985 he became the first to graduate in his family. In this episode of Full Disclosure, James speaks to Starmer live at the Leicester Square Theatre in support of Global’s Make Some Noise, LBC’s charity that supports small charities in local communities across the UK.

How has this got so few views? We need all the candidates to do interviews like this and share some actual life skills they have experienced

I'm trying to imagine Boris Johnson or Rishi Sunak admitting to be this open.

Well done Mr Starmer, now I know who you are and what you stand for. Got my vote

He needs to do much more of this.

I've recently fallen into the trap of believing that all politicians are the same. This interview has reminded me that's absolutely not the case. Kier will make an excellent PM.

Thanks for re-publishing this. I missed it with all the turbulence of the last 18 months

I have watched Angela Raynor and Kier Starmer interviewed yesterday and today and I feel so proud to have them leading my country. They're moral, ethical and dedicated to making our lives better. What a refreshing change.

Brilliant interview, so interesting what a genuine moral, compassionate man keir Starmer actually is!

As a fellow Keir, albeit one from Canada, I wholeheartedly endorse this video. Incidentally, although not Rodney, my middle name is also my father’s name.

Straight off the bat mocking Johnson over having too many kids he doesn't care about. 😂

What a great interview. Keir gets accused of being kind of bland and a bit of a non-person but I came away from this with a much better understanding of him as a person. I think he cracked more genuine jokes in this one interview than his political opponents have in their whole careers! The one with Angela was great too though she definitely has never been called bland!

Prior to this I was largely indifferent about KS. This was very helpful.

Absolutely fantastic, every thing I would want in a prime minister I have just heard.

Dignity. Thankyou Kier. Something I have never herd with feeling from the Tories. ❤

Something twitched my nerves when Starmer uttered the words fiercely loyal. I dont think Corbyn would agree.

Maybe I'm just falling for a politician and the standard of PM has been so low but I really really like kier, he seems genuine about his motives and a genuinely nice bloke. Genuinely proud to show him as my prime minister which is crazy to say the least

I have met Kier - He really needs to get out more, he needs to go not just to Leeds, but Newcastle, Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Grimsby, Hull, Bristol, Exeter and York... he needs to go to his Country...

Oh clever James O’Brien you have revealed to Kier Starmerr exactly what he needs to do to allow us to see what kind of a person he is. And you have done it so in such a skilful way that it has enabled the Penny to drop for Kier Starmer to recognise this staring in the face datait; such a vital moment that he must pivot to make it a reality.
