A Starmer Labour government will be an austerity government – he says

Last Updated: October 23, 2022By Tags: , , , ,

Austerity boy: Keir Starmer, as prime minister, would impose policies that would shrink the state, restrict the amount of cash flowing through society, make the rich richer and the poor poorer.

Here’s a timely reminder that a Labour government under Keir Starmer will follow discredited austerity policies, similar to those of a Conservative administration.

Austerity doesn’t work. It shrinks the state and cuts the amount of money flowing through society, meaning the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

Public services suffer, and social mobility withers.

These are not traditional Labour Party policies.

But listen to Keir Starmer admitting they are his policies:

      Good point. What about a windfall tax on all the hedge funds that made fortunes by shorting the Pound?

    Sadly a Starmer Labour Government would be just as much of a disaster as the Tory one would be
    Where’s Jeremy Corbyn when we so desperately need him?
