Keir Starmer did utter the words "I am really shocked that the hon. Gentleman pretends to have respect for Henry's family and then acts in this way" during Prime Minister's Questions on June 3, 2026, as confirmed by Hansard, BBC, AP, and multiple other outlets. The context is clear: Nigel Farage had called for "pure, cold rage" in response to the Henry Nowak case and alleged "two-tier policing," while the Nowak family had explicitly asked for their son's death not to be used to stir division. However, the claim being fact-checked is not merely that Starmer said he was shocked — it is that he *was* genuinely shocked. This is a claim about a person's internal emotional state. Whether Starmer truly felt shock, or whether this was political rhetoric employed during a heated parliamentary exchange, cannot be corroborated or contradicted by public evidence. The only available evidence is the act of utterance itself, which is insufficient to verify or falsify a claim about someone's genuine internal emotional state.
