"In a major speech to the UK Labour party conference in Liverpool on Sunday, Albanese argued Labour can resist the challenges being levelled at trust in government and institutions. As many as 20,000 people are expected at the party's annual conference, which comes amid growing criticism of Starmer's leadership, after political missteps and departures in recent weeks, and as Labour lags Nigel Farage's Reform party by as much as 10 points in opinion polls."
"Because it takes time to turn promises into progress. It takes time for plans to work and be seen to work. For inflation to fall, wages to rise, new homes to be finished, new energy connected, new hospitals to open, new investments in education to flow into results. It takes time to tackle problems that have been created over decades. It takes time to repay trust by delivering on our commitments, and in doing so build trust for future action."
Keir Starmer's leadership faces growing criticism, political missteps, departures, and polling shortfalls against Nigel Farage's Reform party. Speculation about an internal leadership challenge has arisen ahead of the large Labour conference in Liverpool attended by tens of thousands. Labour asserts a firm commitment to defend democracy and resist far-right and populist forces. The government emphasizes that translating promises into progress requires time to lower inflation, raise wages, complete housing and energy projects, open hospitals, and improve education. Restoring trust in government and institutions is presented as a long-term task amid technological change such as the rise of artificial intelligence.
