Sir Keir Starmer has called on Liz Truss not to claim an allowance of up to £115,000 a year that she would be entitled to after resigning as PM,
BBC reports.
Liz Truss announced her resignation from the lectern outside No 10 on Thursday after just 44 days in the job.
It means she will now be able to claim the Public Duty Costs Allowance (PDCA), currently set at £115,000, which all former prime ministers are entitled to.
But the Labour leader said she's "not earned the right" to the entitlement.
Former prime ministers are able to draw on the PDCA for any costs that arise as a result of public duties.
But Sir Keir, speaking to the BBC, said: "She shouldn't take that entitlement. After 44 days she has not earned the right to that entitlement, she should turn it down."
