Starmer’s former top spinner Paul Ovenden has written another punchy intervention in the Times this morning, attacking Labour directly for fighting to give ‘Boriswave’ migrants “lifetime benefits, paid out of the pockets of other already hard-up, fed-up constituents” and warning Britain “can no longer borrow our way out of every difficulty“. Is anyone in the Treasury listening?
“At a time when our national debt is 93 per cent of GDP, borrowing costs are soaring and we have barely scratched the surface of the £320 billion of debt we accrued at the start of this decade, a disinterested observer could only conclude that either MPs know something wonderful about the public finances that no one else does or there is an acute madness inflicting the body politic.”
He also compares the current moment to Suez and says “we are about to wake up collectively to how much poorer, weaker and softer we are than we pretend“. Maybe he realised he was in the wrong party all this time…
