Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

When we come back, we're going to be speaking to big power player within the Labour Party.

Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

Mayor Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London, of course, who is marking his 10th year in office and certainly, I think, wondering whether or not Keir Starmer will get to that same objective that he set himself of getting to 10 years as Prime Minister.

Mehr Khan, let's just be very, very direct and clear.

Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

Do you think on the basis of what you heard in the Prime Minister's speech today, that he should go on in his job, that he deserves to go on in his job?

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

So you say there needs to be a fundamental change in substance on the basis of what you heard in that speech.

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

Was that a fundamental change in substance?

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

For example, going into one of the things the Prime Minister cited, he said we can't have incremental change.

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

He said that we need to be back in the heart of Europe.

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

But he seemed to be offering incremental change in terms of our relationship with Europe on the basis of what he said.

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

Was it enough?

The News Agents

And you think rejoining the customs union and single market in advance of the next general election?

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

But Mekong, you think that the answer to these elections for the Labour Party to restore trust would be for the Labour Party to break its manifesto pledge and go back on the red lines on single market and customs union?

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

and to turn around to all those places in the Red Wall which were highly Brexit voting, which have just endorsed, again, Nigel Farage via the Reform Party to say, we're going to go back, reopen Brexit and join these institutions.

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

That would be the answer for the Labour Party?

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

Do you think that Keir Starmer should lead the party to the next election?

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

Can I hear what you're saying on the need for a change of substance?

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

But still, it is important.

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

The personnel is important.

The News Agents
Starmer's make or break speech: Will it save him?

Do you think that Keir Starmer is the best person, even with some of that change, to lead the Labour Party into the next general election?
