THREE Tory MPs promoted a far-right smear against Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer today by retweeting a doctored video.

The clip, which was originally posted by (the now deleted) far-right account @NJamesWorld, had 239,000 views before the account was suspended by Twitter.

Screenshots seen by the Star show that the account has tweeted Islamophobic and racist posts, and in support of “Tommy Robinson,” real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon.
