Keir Starmer urges Tory voters to back Labour in speech disrupted by protester

Our society is fucking falling apart. A massive cost of living crisis, food bank usage is at an all time high, the gap between rich and poor has never been higher, entire generations are completely unable to buy a home, each year breaks through the ceiling for “hottest year on record”, we’re completely blasting past the paris climate accords, still massively subsidising fossil fuels, inflation is absurd, the NHS is falling apart, along with every other public service, and Brexit is not only hugely unpopular but is actively damaging our opportunities.

And what bold, decisive answers does Labour have to solve these problems?

close ties with business and a “competitive tax regime” to solve the housing crisis

not go back into the EU

not rejoin the single market or a customs union

not re-establishing freedom of movement

not committing to investing in renewables or other green policies

prioritising “””efficiency””” in the NHS, refusing to increase funding until they’ve undertaken an assessment

focusing on “””economic growth””” rather than green policy (which means sacrificing the environment for the benefit of the wealthy)

“getting people back into work rather than increasing their benefits“

“Deploy the power of artificial intelligence“ to help fix the NHS

ruling out any sort of wealth tax or increasing taxes for the wealthy

Labour under Starmer inspires no hope or enthusiasm whatsoever. They’re literally the party of, “I guess they’re technically not the Tories”. But make no mistake, they’re running on a right wing platform.

Labour claim to be “for the many, not the few”, but that’s not true. They’re “for the money, and none for you”.

If you want to vote for them because they’re better than the far-right Tories, you go ahead and do that, be my guest.

But I’m not going to be voting for a right wing party next election.
