Dull stuff from Sir Keir

Starmer brands Reform UK an ‘enemy’ of Britain ahead of Labour conference

Sir Keir Starmer has vowed to take the fight to Reform UK, who he described as an “enemy” of the country, ahead of the Labour Party conference this weekend.

Chancellor Rachel Reeves has, meanwhile, said she wants to sign an “ambitious” new youth migration scheme with the EU, which she claimed would reduce the need for tax rises in the forthcoming budget.

Speaking ahead of the Labour conference in Liverpool, Sir Keir told the Guardian newspaper that the gathering was a “real opportunity for us to make our argument about patriotic national renewal, to own patriotism, to define it for what it is”.

Dull stuff from Sir Keir. 

A chap is bound to wonder if this is to be the conference where Labour folk openly admit that Keir Starmer is a political nuisance, too boring to carry on. 

They may also ask themselves if he'll take Labour to a point where the whole party becomes a relic of the past, a bit of useless wreckage best ignored by the modern world.

Cling on Sir Keir, cling on.
