The Labour leader has faced backlash after posting a video on social media of his visit to Jesus House church on Friday (2 April).
Starmer described the church as a “wonderful example” of a community-based institution serving the public during a pandemic.
The now deleted social media video clip showed the Labour leader grateful to make an appearance and “to talk about how to address inequalities and injustices” the pandemic cause caused to the country.
However, the Barnet-based church is notoriously known for its pro-stance on conversion therapy and homophobic attitudes. Starmer is not the only politician to make an appearance at the controversial church.
