Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer made an awkward mishap during his Labour conference speech today. Sir Keir addressed a packed out conference venue in Liverpool today where he spoke about the crisis in the Middle East and the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas. The PM urged for an 'immediate ceasefire' in Gaza and went on call for a 'return of the sausages', seemingly fumbling his words before correcting himself. The video player is currently playing an ad. He said: 'I call again for restraint and de-escalation between Lebanon and Israel. I call again for all parties to pull back from the brink. 'I call again for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, the return of the sausages... the hostages, and a recommitment to the two-state solution, a recognised Palestine and a safe and secure Israel.'

Despite the awkward gaffe, Starmer has previously sworn off eating meat - except for fish - while his wife Starmer used his keynote speech at the Labour conference today to launch a bid to reboot his fledgling premiership as he begged Brits to be 'patient' and stick with his 'painful choices' rather than go down the 'road to nowhere'. The PM struck a more positive tone in his first address to activists since taking power, as he tries to move on from damaging rows over winter fuel allowance, tax hikes and freebies. Watched by wife Victoria, Sir Keir told the gathering in Liverpool the country can find the 'light at the end of the tunnel' if the right course is set now. But he warned there were no 'easy answers' and the task would be 'hard' - pointing the finger at the Tories for 'serving themselves' and pleading with restive Labour supporters to take 'pride' in what they were achieving.
