UK Labour Leader Keir Starmer rejects calls to recall Parliament during ongoing UK unrest and rioting. Starmer's main focus is on community safety and enforcing law against rioters. Opposition parties, including former Home Secretary Priti Patel and Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage, demand an emergency debate on riots and cancellation of lawmakers' holidays. However, Starmer's spokesperson has not ruled out a parliamentary recall entirely, but it is not under current consideration by the government.
