Sir Keir Starmer expressed concerns over the rise of far-right movements, condemning them as promising 'the snake oil of the easy answer' during a discussion on European politics.
Starmer highlighted Germany's regional elections as a pivotal moment, pointing out that the Alternative for Germany (AfD) winning the most votes signals troubling trends similar to those seen in France.
In his response, the Prime Minister asserted that effective governance is the best counter to the rise of far-right populism, emphasizing the necessity for governmental delivery of promises.
Starmer’s comments underline a broader trend across Europe, raising alarms over the implications of electoral success for far-right parties in shaping national and continental policies.
