It occurred to me earlier this week that if I could ask Keir Starmer one question I would ask what his government is for. No doubt he would give me some vague, woolly answer about making a fairer society but he doesn’t seem to have any idea how to bring it about and everything in British public life seems to be getting demonstrably worse by the day.
