Frances Ryan is right to raise the question of just what we can expect from an incoming Labour government (By telling us so little about its policy plans, Labour tells us all we need to know, 13 July). The country clearly needs a radical break from the collective failed policies of five consecutive Tory prime ministers.
When Keir Starmer made 10 pledges during the Labour party leadership campaign in 2020, he said there would be “no stepping back from our core principles” and that he would increase income tax for the top 5% of earners, keep public services in public hands, and support common ownership of rail, mail, energy and water.
