Sir Keir Starmer will suggest his plan for ‘getting our future back’ could take a decade of Labour government.
Sir Keir Starmer will set his sights on at least two terms in power in an attempt to rescue a country “ruined” by 13 years of Conservative rule.
With critics suggesting Labour has benefited from disaffection with the Conservatives rather than a desire to see Sir Keir in No 10, aides said his speech to the party’s conference in Liverpool would answer the question: “Why Labour?” Following shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves’ speech setting out plans to modernise Britain by reforming its “antiquated” planning system so new infrastructure gets build, Sir Keir will contrast the approach with Rishi Sunak’s decision to use his Conservative conference speech to axe the northern leg of HS2.
Sir Keir has committed to ensuring the UK has the highest sustained economic growth in the G7 group of leading democracies as one of his “missions” for government. He will promise a government that “takes care of the big questions” so working people have “freedom to enjoy what they love” with “more time, more energy, more possibility, more life”.“It boils down to this: can we look the challenges of this age squarely in the eye and amidst all the change and insecurity find the hunger to win new opportunities and the strength to conserve what is precious.”
