Starmer's Labour branded austerity-lite' and rudderless' in scathing attack on PM
"For too long it has been everyday people, workers and communities who have paid the price for crisis after crisis not of their making. In 2026, this must stop. The government needs to decide what it stands for and who it stands for. If we have to ask, it is not working. The party faithful can agonise about its failing leadership and a night of the long knives'. But a new Labour leadership with the same policies simply won't cut it."
"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
Unite brands Labour as austerity-lite and rudderless and warns that failing to prioritise workers in 2026 risks sowing seeds of political destruction. Unite criticises Labour's focus on internal leadership battles and potential successors instead of addressing pressing national issues. Unite emphasises that everyday people, workers and communities have repeatedly paid the price for crises not of their making and calls for a clear vision prioritising workers and communities over austerity-lite policies. The message calls for bold economic vision and policies that break the 'doom loop' of austerity and deliver tangible benefits for workers.
