Keir Starmer will vow to rebuild Britain through “opportunity, prosperity and security” in a major pre-Budget speech tomorrow.
The Labour leader, who in recent weeks has faced the first serious grumblings against his premiership, will outline how his party would revive the UK in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
Speaking less than two weeks before Chancellor Rishi Sunak reveals the Government's tax and spending plans, Mr Starmer will draw battle lines with the Tories about the country's recovery from the crisis.
He is expected to blame a “failed Conservative ideology” for leaving the nation more exposed and less resilient when Covid-19 reached our shores.
