Starmer won’t even buy his sister lunch let alone save the country.
Keir Starmer's Resolution Foundation Speech showed austerity will be back under Labour and he himself is an absolute Scrooge.
Right, so yesterday it was another speech by Keir Starmer, they really should come with a warning label, like may cause drowsiness, or if listening to Tories makes you irrationally lash out, do not tune in, that sort of thing.
This was a speech that acknowledged the damage the Tories had done, that identified the problems, but offered no new solutions, just a return to old ones, believing we can starve the economy of investment in order to make it grow. This was less of a speech from the heir to Blair, this speech may as well have been written by 2010 David Cameron and George Osborne, because it is their plan, that didn’t work, that messed up and as if to underline the fact he won’t spend if he can avoid it, told a story about his own sister that makes him sound like the most tight fisted miser going, that at this time of year made him sound like a modern day Ebenezer Scrooge. There’s no three ghosts coming to visit him to offer us any salvation should he reach power, but we can think twice about where our votes are going if he’s set on making this country even worse through his rampant economic illiteracy.
Right, so Labour’s economic vision for the country, Starmer was giving another speech so prop open your eyeballs with cocktail sticks, it’ll be another dry one, the man who has all the charisma and appeal of a plasterboard offcut and no, I’m not being mean, it’s not an insult if it’s an accurate description.
He turned up at the Resolution Foundation, a think tank that was set up, according to it’s stated aim, in order to improve the standard of living of low to middle class incomes. A great pity they hosted a man making a speech where none of that was his intention whatsoever.
He started by pointing out the failings of the Tories, good place to start, you’d imagine, using a graph by his own hosts showing their findings following the Autumn Statement, which showed this parliament is on track to be the first in modern history to show living standards have fallen. To be honest, you’d imagine they haven’t looked hard enough at that statistic then, because lives have been hell on Earth since 2010 for those on the lowest incomes certainly, I suppose it is only now middle incomes are getting squeezed too, that it is showing up in this particular groups findings, the point being we’re all worse off yes, very good Keith, you’ve identified the problem. So what are you going to do about it then? Well we had to wait for a bit, Starmer had to go back to the 1970s and use his own upbringing as an example of knowing what a cost of living crisis feels like. Well I grew up in the 1980’s sunshine and if you didn’t notice the struggle of people growing up through Thatcher, you weren’t so badly off, in that pebble-dashed semi you speak of, but he made actually very accurate points on how it feels to try and work more to make ends meet, that feeling of running into a brick wall, the stress of struggling, the choices you make when you go shopping and we know that is because work doesn’t pay and wages have fallen behind the times.

Hi, I'm Damien Willey. I'm a former welder, but now I'm a writer, blogger, vlogger and presenter and interviewer with Socialist Telly (Please do go and visit what we all get up to on https://www.youtube.com/c/SocialistTelly)
I'm an unpaid carer for my disabled wife and daughter and as such we know all too well the difficulties that associated with that living in Tory Britain and I personally believe the answer lies in socialism.
