Sir Keir Starmer has warned that tax rises and austerity risk ‘choking off’ a rapid economic revival after the coronavirus pandemic.
The Labour leader said he wanted to model the UK’s recovery on Clement Attlee’s post-Second World War strategy to restore Britain’s ‘backbone’.
‘In the short term, you don’t balance the books and you don’t choke off the recovery by raising taxes on the one hand or reverting to austerity on the other,’ he said.
Ahead of the Chancellor’s budget on March 3, Sir Keir told The Times that the Tories would revert ‘to business as usual’.
