Starmer warns against 'dangerous right-wing politics' of Reform UK in Glasgow

News summary

During a speech at the Scottish Labour conference, Keir Starmer condemned the 'dangerous right-wing politics' of Reform UK, led by Nigel Farage, arguing that their policies are not beneficial for working people in Britain. Starmer highlighted that Reform UK has opposed key legislation such as the Employment Rights Bill, which aims to enhance worker protections, and criticized their stance on the NHS, claiming they want to impose charges for its use. He warned that if Labour fails to present a clear vision for the future, right-wing parties will fill that void, potentially reshaping the political landscape in their favor. Starmer's remarks came as Reform UK has gained traction in polls, overtaking Labour in recent surveys. However, his speech was noted for a lack of attendance, with many empty seats observed in the conference hall, raising questions about party engagement. In response, a spokesperson for Reform UK criticized Starmer, asserting that he is failing Scotland.
