Sir Keir Starmer ‘hasn't got the message’ on child poverty, Usdaw conference told
SIR KEIR STARMER still “hasn’t got the message” on Britain’s shocking levels of child poverty, the Usdaw annual conference heard today.
The Labour leader was criticised for failing to commit to scrapping the two-child benefit cap as delegates passed a motion urging the party to make this an “immediate priority.”
In his address to the conference in Blackpool on Tuesday, Sir Keir said general secretary Paddy Lillis had been a “good friend through thick and thin” and vowed to return the favour.
