EXCLUSIVE: The Labour leader revealed he was given a Fergie pep talk at Old Trafford.
Legendary Scots football boss Sir Alex Ferguson has advised Keir Starmer on kicking the Tories out of Government.
Polls show Starmer is on the cusp of a historic general election win, with the Tories forecast to have their worst ever result. “He is someone who has always had strong values that have gone through everything that he’s done, Labour values of course, with that real focus on winning but also Sir Alex has never forgotten his roots. It was really good for me to be able to have a chat with him.”
Starmer is supporting England at Euro 2024, but he is backing Scotland in Sunday’s crunch group game against Hungary: “Scottish Labour MPs, if they are returned, will sit at the heart of Government and that will be a Government absolutely intent on delivering for Scotland.The last Labour Government lifted millions of older people and children out of poverty and Starmer has been accused of lacking focus in this area.“Yes, it is to replicate what we did under the last Labour Government to drive child poverty right down. We can get going on that straight away by tackling the underlying causes of poverty.
