If Starmer wants to beat Reform, he’ll need more than ‘patriotic renewal’ – whatever that is | Zoe Williams

Keir Starmer's recent speech at the Global Progress Action Summit in London aimed to address the rising politics of hate and division, but many critics argue that his approach lacks clarity and substance. His call for 'patriotic renewal' has left many wondering what it truly means, and whether it will resonate with voters. As the next election approaches, Starmer's strategy may need to evolve significantly if he hopes to effectively counter the growing influence of Reform and connect with the electorate.
