Keir Starmer will tell us we'll be finding things getting worse before they get better & that Labour is going to have to make some 'unpopular decisions'.
I have no doubt that the Tories have left a toxic legacy, but why is it that once again the poor & vulnerable are having to suffer the pain for things to be 'fixed'?
Why aren't the unpopular decisions about taxing the better off, or using a different economic rationale?
We know why....
