'We will begin the hard yards of fixing 14yrs of Tory failure'

KEIR Starmer said he found "crisis and failure everywhere" on entering government after 14 years of Tory misrule.

Yesterday, Lib Dem leader Ed Davey urged Starmer to take a "once-in-a-century" chance to fix the care crisis.

Starmer replied: "There's a crisis and a failure absolutely everywhere after 14 years of failure that this government of service will begin the hard yards of fixing, including on social care."
