LABOUR leader Sir Keir Starmer will face no police action over his collision with a cyclist.

A Met spokesperson said that the decision followed a thorough investigation and that “both parties have been informed”.

A witness claimed that millionaire Sir Keir was performing a U-turn when he collided with the Deliveroo cyclist on October 25.

The unnamed rider allegedly yelled “How did you not see me?”’ after being knocked from his bicycle in Kentish Town, North London.

He was treated for an injured arm.

Sir Keir, former Director of Public Prosecutions, was in his Toyota RAV4 and a mile from his home.

He exchanged details with the cyclist, spoke with an off-duty community police support officer and reported the incident at a police station.

The witness said: “The cyclist hit the car from the driver’s side.

“He was nearly in tears, holding his left arm in pain. He looked very annoyed.

“Within ten minutes, Sir Keir was gone. Then police turned up. If I was to do that, I’d get in trouble. He had left so early.”

Labour Party sources claimed Sir Keir, 58, was not doing a U-turn but was parking.
