Starmer accuses Sunak of 'Jeremy Corbyn-style' manifesto
www.bbc.co.uk
The Labour leader says the Tories don't "provide the funding" for their pledges and "hope nobody notices".

Who is this supposed to endear him to?

    I definitely did a double-take on that. “This guy is doing what my predecessor did”.

    I guess he’s trying very hard to not be Corbyn?

      “This guy is doing what my predecessor did”.

      Pretty much, but what Starmer is hoping people will hear is:

      “This guy is doing the very unpopular thing my very unpopular predecessor, from whom I am very different, did”.

      Given how popular Jez was at the ballot box, that’s not a bad plan.

        Yeah this way starmer won’t piss off the right wing and attract the attention of their media, like Corbyn did.
