The post-war settlement is breaking down on all fronts—at home and abroad. It is a great unravelling.\n\nTo placate the furious Labour left, Reeves will likely resort to yet more damaging tax rises while cutting welfare and increasing defence spending. The centre-right must respond with clarity and discipline. Any other strategy is a mistake:\n\n\t•\tWelcome every spending cut.\n\t•\tOppose every tax rise.\n\nNew article: Right turn ahead for Reeves and Starmer\n\nAgainst all their instincts, Labour are about to turn further right. Centre-right politicians and think tanks must drive them forward in a situation which is more serious than commonly understood.\n\nhttps://fightingforafreefuture.substack.com/p/right-turn-ahead-for-reeves-and-starmer"}
