Starmer: Government pumping out nonsense on Labour plans

Sir Keir Starmer describes the government's response to his plans to seek closer co-operation with the EU over the small boats crisis as "nonsense".

It comes after Home Secretary Suella Braverman said the Labour leader would let the UK become a "dumping ground" for Europe's migrants.

Speaking during a visit to The Hague, Sir Keir tells broadcasters: "It's embarrassing that the government is pumping out this nonsense”.

Starmer channels Blair & Miliband to launch election pledges

Sir Keir Starmer has unveiled a pledge card with six "first steps" the Labour Party would take if it were to form a government after the next general election. The steps include measures to invest in the NHS, education and policing, to set up a new national energy company and an elite border force, and to promote economic stability. The move, unveiled during a campaign speech in Essex, is reminiscent of Tony Blair’s five pledges ahead of Labour’s landslide victory in 1997, and less favourably of Ed Miliband’s promises carved into stone in 2015.
