Labour Conference: Did Starmer Do Enough?

Today, Keir Starmer has used his conference speech to attack Nigel Farage saying he “doesn’t like Britain”.

The Prime Minister warned against “the politics of grievance” and said that the UK is at a “fork in the road”. In response Nigel Farage has accused Starmer of being an unfit PM.

Adam, Chris and Alex discuss this, as well as two policy announcements from the speech surrounding further education and the creation of NHS Online.
