火曜日, 5月 28, 2024

For many, the answer is a measure of the extent to which Keir Starmer has changed the party since he became leader.

Key Points: 
  • For many, the answer is a measure of the extent to which Keir Starmer has changed the party since he became leader.
  • It is, effectively, a test of leadership skills, alongside a demonstration that they can stamp their authority on their party.
  • Blair interpreted the 1992 defeat as a message that voters did not yet trust the Labour party with the powers of government.
  • They feared that, at heart, Labour was still prone to nationalisation, which risked reversing the Thatcher reforms of the 1980s.

Labour’s most successful renewal projects

  • Historically, Labour renewal projects have been about moving beyond the perception that it was an out-of-date, ideologically driven party.
  • Harold Wilson attempted this with the rhetoric of “scientific socialism” during his white heat of technology speech in 1963.
  • Blair controversially reformed clause four of the Labour party constitution to signal that he was moving the party away from socialism.
  • This tendency risks creating confusion among voters, who may lose sight of the overarching message of change and renewal.
