Politically Painful: Will Voters Accept Starmer Shifting the Blame?

Update: 2024-08-27

Description

Keir Starmer took on the job of Prime Minister with a message of hope and optimism, but less than eight weeks later, he's warning of a "painful" budget to "get the rot out". We discuss the tone and content of the Prime Minister's speech with Philip Collins, former chief speechwriter to Tony Blair and founder of communications advisers The Draft. Hosted by Stephen Carroll and James Woolcock.
