The Labour Party may give settled EU migrants full voting rights if it wins the next general election, party leader Sir Keir Starmer has said.

Starmer made the remarks in response to a report by The Sunday Telegraph, which said the opposition leader is prepared to allow settled migrants and 16- and 17-year-olds to vote in general elections.
