Sir Keir Starmer will accuse the Tories of losing control of the economy as a new poll suggested Labour has opened up a 17-point lead over the Conservatives.
Sir Keir will vow to get the UK “out of this endless cycle of crisis” and quote Sir Tony Blair to dub Labour the “political wing of the British people” after a mini-budget that tanked the pound saw Labour establish their greatest lead since YouGov began polling in 2001.
The Labour leader will outline an ambition to “turn the UK into a growth superpower” as he argues that his is the party of financial responsibility after the markets plummeted in response to the Tories’ plans to borrow billions to pay for massive tax cuts.
