What Keir Starmer’s new ‘six steps’ tells us about his plans for government
- Housing is out, 'border security' is now in
- 'Fiscal rules’ now trump economic growth
- He's gone from making 'pledges' for government, to 'missions' to mere 'steps'

Why do I feel like they definitely, 100% want people to photoshop him as a baby on twitter, because it's kinda dry but "my first steps" is so very memeable that it's the only way to get it to spread outside of politics circles.

Keir Starmer did have 10 pledges to get elected as leader of the Labour Party. Whatever happened to them?

They still have my backing, but he doesn’t half sound like piggy and Gideot from 2010.

Well that's bloody depressing! I'd have hoped Byline would hold their fire till the Tories are dropkicked to kingdom come! Can we just get the Cons out first ? Keir's priority is getting elected ffs. Let's talk about other priorities or replace him for more left-leaning other after one full term.

Starmers pledges can all be fixed. deliver economic stability - Rejoin Single Market cut NHS waiting times - Restore Freedom of Movement recruit more teachers - Again, Restore Freedom of Movement set up a state owned energy company - or join the EU Internal Energy Market

And yet, despite this, it is still streets ahead of what the conservatives are offering. Which says an awful lot about where the last 14 years have left us.....

Remember his red lines on Brexit that meant they wouldn't trigger article 50 unless those criteria were met?
