Sir Keir Starmer rejected Sir Tony Blair’s criticism of his policies, saying he had been “vindicated” by their results.

The former Labour prime minister launched a scathing attack on his successor earlier this week, accusing Sir Keir’s Government of lacking a “coherent plan” and holding back business.
