Fact check: Photograph of Prime Minister with Southport attacker is fake
The main portion of the photograph shows Sir Keir Starmer at an event in Selby, North Yorkshire, on July 21 2023. It was taken after Keir Mather won the by-election for the parliamentary constituency of Selby and Ainsty for Labour the previous day. In the original image, Sir Keir can be seen shaking Mr Mather’s hand.
