Ecuador’s election wasn’t free — and its people will pay the price under President Noboa
Labour must drive up living standards
RICHARD BURGON MP argues that the re-election of Donald Trump is a clear warning to the Labour government to prioritise boosting living standards.

THE election of Donald Trump as US president will undoubtedly benefit the billionaires, corporations and fossil fuel companies that dominate US economic life.
However, its roots lie in the disenchantment felt by large numbers of voters who previously backed the Democrats but didn’t this time after living standards took a hit in recent years.
A key lesson for our new government to learn from Trump’s election is the need to drive up living standards throughout this Parliament.
