Visiting Jesus Church in Brent was a ‘mistake’, says the Labour leader after pressure from LGBTQ+ activists
The Labour leader Keir Starmer has apologised for visiting a north London church that has faced criticism for homophobia.
Starmer said he disagreed with the views espoused by the leaders of Jesus House in Brent, which hosts a vaccination centre but has also been accused of carrying out “exorcisms” on gay people, adding that he only learned of the concerns after his visit on Good Friday.
