Labour leader Keir Starmer during the Labour Party local elections campaign launch at the Black Country & Marches Institute of Technology in Dudley, March 28, 2024
SIR KEIR STARMER embraced the Boris Johnson agenda as he launched Labour’s local elections campaign today.
Coming soon after both he and shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves had praised Margaret Thatcher, the Labour leader switched Tory role models to support the ex-premier’s “levelling-up” policies.
Sir Keir travelled to Dudley in the West Midlands to launch Labour’s campaign, with a pledge that local authorities will partner with the private sector to improve depleted services.
