LABOUR'S 2024 BATTLE PLAN

It's safety-first Starmer's time to go BOLD

A SPECTRE is haunting Labour - the spectre of failure.

The ghost at the party in Liverpool is bitter memories of past disappointments. They must make sure the 2024 election is not like 1992 or 2015.

It's why Keir Starmer & Co constantly warn that complacency is an enemy, champagne to be kept on ice until after next year's election.

Yes, the doors were blown off in Rutherglen. His resurgent Labour is streets ahead in the polls. Weak Rishi Sunak's warring Conservatives look a spent force, with no boost after their conference train crash last week.

Yet the deal is far from clinched when 50-plus of Harold Wilson's unpredictable long weeks are probably ahead for Harold Macmillan's unexpected events to occur.
