In his speech from the No 10 rose garden, Sir Keir Starmer emphasized that the recent riots exposed societal issues stemming from 14 years of Tory governance, declaring, "The riots didn’t just betray the sickness, they revealed the cure. That cure is the unity and care for communities, demonstrated in actions of neighbors and emergency services alike." He highlighted the importance of societal cohesion in contrast to the divisive nature of populism.
Starmer warned of impending challenges as the Labour government works to address an 'economic black hole' alongside a 'societal black hole.' He acknowledged that "things will get worse before we get better," stressing that confronting these deep-rooted issues will require dedicated efforts to heal the fractures within society.
