Sir Keir Starmer will tomorrow declare that Labour needs at least ten years in power to ‘heal’ Britain.
In a sign of Labour’s growing confidence it will win the next election, Sir Keir will use his keynote speech at the party’s conference to set out plans for a ‘decade of national renewal’.
Labour high command has warned shadow ministers against complacency at the party’s annual gathering in Liverpool this week, despite holding a double-digit poll lead over the Conservatives for more than a year.
But Sir Keir’s comments tomorrow suggest he believes he is now on course to hold power until the mid-2030s.
