LONDON - Keir Starmer, the frontrunner in the race to lead Britain’s main opposition Labour Party, has pledged to end feuding within its ranks and take the fight to Prime Minister Boris Johnson if he wins the contest.
The Corbyn era, which began in 2015 when the veteran socialist unexpectedly won the leadership, was marked by bitter infighting between the party’s leftist and centrist wings. “We are not going to trash the last Labour government, but nor are we going to trash the last four years,” he said. “There have been very many important moves.”
He said the future focus should be on ending fiscal austerity, investing in public services, and winning public arguments against Johnson, whom he described as lacking principles and a moral compass.In the first stage of the party leadership contest, candidates must seek the backing of fellow Labour members of parliament.
