- The Labour Leader Sir Keir Starmer has announced the six first steps his government would make if he wins the General Election later this year. The promises include cutting NHS waiting lists and recruiting more teachers. But the overarching theme was stability and caution with the public finances.
(Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
Sir Keir said the policies were a "down payment on change" and he blamed the economic crisis during Liz Truss's premiership for the fact that he was not being more ambitious.

Someone willing to admit they changed a plan because circumstances changed is already massive improvement from the last 12 years.
All 6 pledges will be scrapped this coming Monday morning on sky news.😂😂😂
What a hypocrite more promises not even in the manifesto just like always he's backstabbing, back peddling, hypocrite, liar, he's a boring version of Blair and Boris and Rishi put together,
Just when I thought he couldn't get any worse, Mandelson, Blair lovers comes out with these bunch of hypocrites who always voted with Tories check his track record,
We have to get anyone other than the two main hypocritical liars parties, have independents please anything better than these two party hypocrite Elites bought and payed for by lobbies.
They're just 'new Tories '.
Starmer has even adopted the far right Tory Brexit.
Tory B
Honestly sick of you Tory bots spouting the same old sh*t.
Imagine still believing this. We could’ve stopped the Tories and had a completely different path in 2015. Yet all I heard was “both parties are the same”. Absolute nonsense. If you remember Ed Miliband would’ve increased NHS spending, implemented a mansion tax, preserved our membership of the EU, nationalized the railways, and become the first major country to recognize Palestine. Your viewpoint is so self-destructive.
@@thl205 So, just more leftist cancer... I see no improvement upon what the Tories have inflicted upon this country. Both are just two different brands of authoritarian leftist control freaks.
Genuine question, is anyone actually buying this?
For God and country hope people will check his records and see overwhelming evidences of him being pushed by Peter Mandelson Tony Blair lovers, he and his current teams are full of hypocrites who are just as bad as the Tories

Only the sleeping dumbed down generationally brainwashed WOKIES that are left...everyone else is AWAKE!
Once again nobody is saying how this is all going to be financed. Worst of all journalists don't make them. Furthermore I'm getting tired to the 'Lizz Truss wrecked the economy' tribe.

Pot belly
The vast majority of people are financially illiterate. Most people think the economy is like a household budget. Unfortunately, I do think there's a major gap in the general population's knowledge.
He's been to the To y Blair school of hand signalling.
The new tories eh? How many of his pledges has he gone back on before he even gets into power, the media love this guy
you dont understand, these 6 pledges get us to a point where we can enact the previous 5 pledges that took over from the 10 abandoned pledges he made to bribe a win to become leader.
@@Glasgow_kiss how many years wiill that take? All b.s trust me he just another tory

@@keiranmorrisart the mandate he started with when he put his name in hat to replace corbyn look at that he has done u turn on every single one of them, he refuses to allow anyone who been kicked out of party due to there views if they left wing, supporters of Palestine he threatens to kick anyone out too
He answered that question, if you can be bothered to watch it
1. Say I'm better than Corbyn. 2. Say Israel needs to do all "she" can to defend "herself". 3. Remind people that I'm better than Corbyn. 4. See what family benefits can be further cut. 5. ????? 6. Profit.
100% He is a Rothschild ..deep state player....a liar...deciever ...con-artist and thief.. Never forget he covered up for Saville..........NEVER TO BE TRUSTED!!!
Where this obsession with Israel come from?
@@pietrostavastano2356 labour friends of israel, of which he and most of his front bench are members and get donations and paid holidays from.
@@Glasgow_kiss good.Better than Friends of Hamas
All sounds good to me.
What is astonishing is that people will vote, and may well even elect, a politician who offers policies which anyone can see are guaranteed failures.
Because there are so many tribal voters that always vote for the same side no matter what, just trying to win social media gloating rights over the opposition.
Plus the media like to keep the corrupt two party system propped up because they have control over them.
Trust more professional Liars. Two sides of the same coin
Counterfeit coin at that!
Two cheeks of the same backside!
I voted Labour all my life. I ain't buying this from starmer. Will be voting another party
Vote green 🌏
Enjoy your Tory government

Might as well be written on a sheet of toilet paper, a bland nothingness, the card and Starmer both
Everything in life is a trade off, his lack of charisma may seem uninspiring on the surface, but it's getting things done that's most important. Politicians that are all show never live up to their expectations, would rather have a 'bland' adult at the helm any day.
at least if it was written on a piece of toilet paper it would be useful to someone

Bliar is mentoring him on the sidelines
Well, Blair DID win elections, so maybe that's it
Blair was the last decent prime minister.

All six scraped next week
4 of his 10 pledges he stole the labour leadership on seems to have been scrapped

Can’t watch this, it’s an insult to my intelligence
God help us if Labour get into government again.
They're really not that much different to the Tories at this point. It's just a different coloured rosette.
@@martinpatterson3417 No my friend. The socialists are authoritarian in their approach. They sell themselves as liberal and for the working man and woman. But they are the ones who want to destroy this nation and deliver it into the hands of the WHO and the EU. I hope people can see that.
@@martinpatterson3417 slow decline Tories, rapid decline Labour
We will never get labour out , they import more labour voters every week
They will at the next general election.
Tory boy Starmer not known as Mr flip flop for nothing with breaking pledges.
I already have hope thanks. I hope Labour don’t get into Government.
I like the way you think 😂
They will. Anything better than the Tories.
32,000 schools in the uk. education is devolved in wales, NI and Scotland. that leaves 24,000 schools in england. and he is hailing 6500 teachers as a vote winner? thats 1 teacher for every 3.5 schools.
My local secondary school currently has seven teaching vacancies up on the website!
There will be more when they have completed their DEI training and banner waving classes!
That's understandable how about we do nothing about it then 👍
he's got such David Brent energy
😂
Its a 'No' from me !!
so you choose conservatives ? because thats all the choice we have..

Think about it with a shows up were education system is completely useless brexit doesn't work yes brexit brexit found out your politicians are all useless people that's the reason how politicians wanted to be in Europe because they can blame Brussels for everything no they cannot blame anybody bar themselves and they do not like it anymore
I see Tony Blair's making a comeback 🤣
Well he's a lawyer by trade so hopefully he won't commit any war crimes for our American friends. 😂
@@TheWebstaff don't hold your breath. He'll dance to any tune the right wing press tell him to dance to, so he would probably follow America into any conflict.
@@TheWebstaff you mean like condoning genocidal acts?
It is a load of Bla Bla Bla.....Or should I say Blair Blair Blair....
their pledge is to be not as bad as the Tories...... what ambition
Gosh this interview is so bad for Starmer: He thinks the UK needs "stability" i.e. state pro quo, in another words, no change, but what the people in the UK need is a big change for a big improve asap - this is why people want Labour to replace Conservative in the coming election. The UK and its people needs investment, not financial austerity, to get better after 14 years of conservative's money cutting.
Stability ie Conservatism.
We have never had a larger tax take and public sector in post war history ……. Please explain how that statement of fact is austere?
@@richardwilson57
Scotland generates more tax per capita than the RUK. 6,3% more per capita last year.
What’s your point? Scottish independence required?
@@richardwilson57
Yes to capitalise on the UK via getting back into the EU Market
Labour offer absolutely nothing
Not with public sector debt at the same size as the economy,
What's needed is for the UK to disband itself after paying of all foreign debt, writing of all public sector debt and go our own ways.
@@ScottishRoss27 Peoples republic of Yorkshire here we go!
They offer the future.
More austerity
I disagree , more woke , more immigration
and more misery
Starmer is owned by the WEF
Question Starmer all you want but it's really not good enough to do this report without listing the six pledges both in narration and on screen.
Says it all that his dad was a tool maker! And what tool he made!
He was the last spanner 🔧 he made 😂
Sir nob starmer
Sir kid starver
Sunak had a pledge of 5 steps, that didn’t work very well did it?!!
Well 3 he is on track with, one has stalled (NHS waiting lists) which is due to the failed ‘biggie’ stopping the boats!
I've never seen a man as unconvincing as starmer. Surely no one is taken in by this twaddle.
Get ready for higher taxes and just let anyone in the country legally. They wont need to come in the boats
These red tories are shameless, at least the blue ines are who they say
Nothing about investing in UK industry like tech? Will the uk just be allowed to fall behind? FYI Tories also have no such plan
All the brains and new industries are up here
Er! Tories plans on this have been very successful- The data shows the number of UK tech incorporations was up 11% to 13,802 in Q1 2024, from 12,441 in Q1 2023, and rose 4.4% on the previous quarter (13,218). This follows a record-breaking year in 2023 with 51,017 new tech incorporations.
@@lal2300 this is true with Boris’ levelling up strategy. However, a lot of big biotech companies are still leaving the London stock exchange to make New York there primary home for listing. My brother works for Arm, and they left for New York because the gov didn’t provide any incentive for them to stay and develope here. These are the people who make the chips for the iPhone btw - would’ve been huge to keep them here
@@Gron257
Scotland has a trade surplus in goods,
England has a massive trade deficit in goods.
If that’s “Labour’s top team” we are in more trouble than I thought. Any team which has Wes Streeting as a member is definitely far from “top”.
Vague and with no timescales - pointless is the word.
More pledges.
Political pledges are something politicians give in order to be elected - and which they run from when they are elected.
Laser focus 😂😂😂
Hypocrite thinks words will cover his track record of voting with the Tories on most issues,
He's pushed by Peter Mandelson Blair lovers idiologs of new hypocrite labour not the traditional working class labour
Yeah like those cats chasing their tails trying to catch a laser pointer.
As Goldfinger famously said.
"No Mr Bond I expect you to die."
Keir Starmer is such a funny guy! His jokes had me in stitches
STARMERGEDDON IS ON THE WAY! You lucky old Brits!!
More Pakistanis, More Indians, More Africans, More Chinese, More Albanians, More Kurds...
More Nigerians , more Bangladeshi and probably more Ukrainians , all holding their hands out for Freebies
What about the they/them community? Why do we always get ignored, are we not important? We, too, would like to seek asylum in the UK 🇬🇧.
@user-dq6nj1zv9h, what about the they/them community?
Splash the cash on what is needed not private contracts and more perks and benefits for the rich the Tories have wasted money and paid themselves at the same time
And you force private education users into the public sector which further increases the shortage. No clue.
The dark cloud that is Labour beckons 🤦♂️
I left the UK to teach abroad after being stabbed and having my knee dislocated and nothing happening in either case, infact being told to expect that sort of injury in teaching and after 28 years I have spent the last 6 years of my life actually teaching and not behaviour managing. Don't expect teachers to stay unless you can sort the behaviour and attitudes of students and their parents.
Beers Smarmer's - "Six steps into the abyss"!
Gypsy Rose Lee told me that on his first day in office Starmer will say that 'He didn't appreciate how bad the country's finances were' so every single promise he made during the campaign is officially scrapped, and tax rises will soon be announced for working class people as business investment is set to fall off a cliff edge.
Imagine complaining about reducing the short fall by half his interviewer calls it a "tiny improvement" that's the exact kind of promise we want to see.
Well, I never heard a jot about what Labour will do.
Hey if they are better than the tories who gutted the civil services that's going to be an improvement.
Starmer is the perfect advert
for contraception
Labour will enable Sharia law in the UK.
Lol, that's hilarious. I'll forgive your ignorance for your unintentional entertainment.
@@Freedom4Palestine3672 how can you free somewhere that doesn't exist?
Honest truth.. skilled workers running away to warmer countries with better wages and benefits. Here is a joke.
So ending zero hour contracts, stopping channel crossers, making houses more affordable and preventing rich landlords from buying up homes and renting them out to multiple not-well-off young people are not part of your first steps in power Sir Keir?.... Still not got my vote yet then.
At least he was honest, and that is very rare in politics
Thank you for coming out with this AFTER my paper 1 🙏🏾🙏🏾
lol
Pointless
From the self-consciously rolled up sleeves (an obvious visual metaphor for hard work) to the Blairite 'pledge card' retread, I found this pre-election launch less than compelling, and I am a Labour supporter!
Labour is Conservative now
Did they report what the 6 steps are?
Already saving money by leaving those pledge cards unlaminated
Could we be seeing the first honest politician not promising what can’t be delivered I think most would rather be told the truth
I wouldn't trust Starmer the Supine to tell me the time
End of the shaft London boy!
I'd like to know how he wants to retain teachers. He's first got to recognise why they are leaving the profession in droves and then bring in a dramatic culture change to our education system.
So what are your policies and how will you deliver them?
Something about Starmer just makes me laugh ……
As a life long Labour voter, I am not even listening. Vote Reform
So who do suggest running the country? Farage that Idiot who is mainly resposible for the mess we are in?
What happens when we keep “taxing the rich” and they leave and take their businesses elsewhere where?
There is a reason for the no fixed deadlines.........
As the famous X files said "trust no one" especially politicians
He's developing the Blair hand wave style. Better watch him closely.
The Labour Party: it is (quite literally) the *least* we can do
i know labour aint that much better guys but after 14 years i am willing to give them a chance to see if things can get better.
I don't understand the negativity of the interviewer at 3:48. Surely if the shortfall is halved, that is good, no? They would be an incoming government. What use is there making a more ambitious promise if they can't deliver it. If they have this goal of halving the shortfall and they breeze past it and do better, then that's good, is it not? Whereas if they promise to completely erase the shortfall and fail to meet that target they will be criticised. Sometimes you just can't win with journalists.
Disaster waiting to happen!
Without wide scale reformation across the public sector, regulations, taxation laws etc nothing will change
After 50 years of voting labor can no longer support this Turkey for the things he's done the things he said can't trust him the only thing left seems to be his voting green or maybe independent 🇵🇸
You’d rather see sunak back in Downing Street than a Labour government? Really? Look to the other MPs and potential candidates not just the leader. Labour has some great MPs who will be in government soon - whilst I’m not warm to Starmer either it’s better than Tory Britain. Absolutely vote green or independent where there is a chance of them winning but I wouldn’t bother if it’s a pure Tory vs Labour contest in your constituency.
😂😂😂😂😂
don't be stupid voting green?! You vote them in and we'll be a ☪ caliphate within a decade. 😑
First ''steps''.....coming from a guy who's broken most of his pledges.
I was at secondary school in 1996 and my Maths teacher was Portuguese. He could barely speak English. UK has been failing us for the last 30 years. Up the democracy
I voted labour before it was invaded by Tory`s ( Blair/ Cameron etc.)
And to Get rid of house of Lords
Labour first pledged this in 1910, 114 years and it still exists and with over 170 Unelected Labour squatters.
Monarchy too. Lets become a modern semi-serious country instead of fawning over people in castles and palaces
@@michealhunt6607
Not a Country its a Union.
thee monarchy is England's.
He's trying to remember the who pledge
I want to hear more about the Great British Energy Company. How are they going to take the UK assets of EON and EDF for example.
Not going to happen, the big 6 won't allow it
The literal only reason Starmer is becoming PM is due to fact he is simply here at the right time. He has no leadership qualities or beneficial factors. I don't agree with Boris on much if anything but he was certainly right calling Starmer a bollard.
As demented as the ‘Ed stone’. Anybody remember that?
Carry on cutting ?...you repulse me
looking at the labour party is like looking at the muppets have actually come to life !
Rishi had 6 steps starmer... you best meet those pledges or kiss your support goodbye...you also best tax companies and the rich and bring down the bills within 5 years
6500 new teachers ( 25,000 schools and colleges ect ) not even 1 per school !
They'l be for the South of England
It takes longe to train them now as the have to undergo DEI training and sit a course on sharia law and banner waving 😡!
I wonder where these magical teachers are going to come from.
Imported mullah’s 🤨!
