Keir Starmer has revealed he once lived above a massage parlour

He said: “I love Northern Soul. This reminds me of my early days in London with a group of friends in a really grotty flat above a sauna and massage parlour that kept interesting hours.”

Sir Keir also told how his father Rodney was a “difficult” man who he was not close to.

The Labour leader said: “I don’t often talk about my dad. He was a difficult man, a complicated man.

“He kept himself to himself. He didn’t particularly like to socialise, so he wouldn’t really go out very much.

“But he was incredibly hard working. He worked as a tool maker on a factory floor all of his life.

But he told how his dad cared for mum Josephine, who had Still’s disease which robbed her of speech and movement.

He added: “He had this utter commitment and devotion to my mum.”

Arsenal fan Sir Keir, 58, said his luxury item would be a football.
