The opposition leader claims people like the prime minister 'debase politics and drag everybody into the gutter'.
He said:"I really don't mind which of them I go up against... most of them are tainted by having propped up Johnson.
Sir Keir's remarks came on the day Mr Johnson faces his final Prime Minister's Questions and as Tory MPs vote for the last two candidates in the race to succeed him in Number 10.But he said a new leader wouldn't fix the Conservatives, claiming the party had been"more divided... for longer than people think" - pointing to rows over Brexit since the referendum, rather than just recent scandals in Downing Street.
"So, that's why I think the idea that they're going to elect someone as the new leader and they're going to get their mojo back and it's all going to unite... I just can't see that. This is a bitter battle about the very purpose of the Conservative Party."
