Sir Keir Starmer has hit back at Kemi Badenoch after her remarks about sandwiches, describing them as “a great British institution”.

On Wednesday, Mrs Badenoch told The Spectator that she did not believe that sandwiches were “real food”, with the Tory leader claiming that lunch breaks were “for wimps”.

But on Thursday, Sir Keir’s official spokesman said the Prime Minister was “quite happy with a sandwich lunch”. He described the sandwich as “a great British institution” that, according to the British Sandwich Association, brings in £8 billion a year to the UK economy.

Discussing the Prime Minister’s favourite sandwiches, the spokesman added: “I think he enjoys a tuna sandwich, and occasionally a cheese toastie.”

Sir Keir’s comments come after Mrs Badenoch detailed her lunch habits in an interview with The Spectator, saying she “would not touch bread if it’s moist”. Instead, she said she would “sometimes” opt for a steak, which she would eat at her desk.

Following Sir Keir’s comments, Mrs Badenoch said he should focus on the plight of farmers who will be impacted by the Treasury’s tax raid on family farms.

She posted on X, formerly Twitter: “The PM has time to respond to my jokes about lunch… but no time for the farmers who produce our food. He refused to answer questions because he doesn’t care. It’s an ideological attack on farmers and will destroy lives. The Conservatives will reverse his cruel Family Farm Tax.”
