Here’s a piece of optimistic news. It was reported in Wednesday’s I, for 12th February 2020 that Keir Starmer has said that he would abolish tuition fees for university students. The article by Hugo Gye runs
Sir Keir Starmer said last night that he would keep Labour’s promise to scrap tuition fees as he vowed to embrace much of the Corbyn agenda.
He said: “Labour must stand by the commitment to end the national scandal of spiralling student debt and abolish tuition fees.”
The leadership front runner also committed to nationalising trains, energy companies, water and the Royal Mail.
Speaking ahead of the first televised hustings in the leadership race, Sir Keir announced 10 pledges which he said would “unite Labour, defend its radical values and take on the Tories.”
The policies encompass much of what was included in the party’s general election manifesto, but excluded the free broadband idea.
I’m not entirely happy with Starmer, as I believe him to be a man of the Labour right. Tony Greenstein has put up piece showing that he has also sided with the police and authorities against protesters. As part of this, he successfully defended the policeman, whose assault on a man returning home from work during the riots of 2010 led to his death. And his team also includes Luke Akehurst and his cronies. Akehurst is a fanatical Zionist and one of the people behind the anti-Semitism witch hunt in the Labour party. But if Starmer is sincere about the embracing much of Corbyn’s policies – which were genuinely popular – then it shows that he is serious about uniting the party and creating an effective challenge to the Tories and the Thatcherite neoliberalism that is wrecking this country, and impoverishing and killing its people.
