‘Clause IV on steroids’: Keir Starmer says his Labour must go further than Blair

Leader says party must ‘change our culture’ as it faces bigger task in government than his predecessor

Labour will have to offer voters at the next general election a radical vision that “goes further and deeper” than Tony Blair’s government because of the scale of the crisis facing the country, Keir Starmer is to say

In a speech on Saturday, he will say reforms are necessary because an incoming Labour government will have a bigger task than Blair faced, owing to the severe challenges currently facing the country, on top of 13 years of Conservative rule.
