THE SNP have slammed Keir Starmer as a “sell out” ahead of his expected visit to Scotland on Monday. 

The party’s depute leader Keith Brown called on the Labour leader to scrap his support for “Tory policies like Brexit and the bedroom tax”.

The MSP for Clackmannanshire and Dunblane also challenged Starmer to answer ‘one simple question: What does the Labour party stand for?’

It comes as the Labour party and its leader have been criticised for a number of policy u-turns, including that a Labour government will not scrap the two-child cap, and associated ‘rape clause’, or bedroom tax, despite previously calling it “heinous” and “inhuman”.

Starmer disliked by all age groups, poll finds

Even older, more right-wing voters dislike or despise ‘Labour’ ‘leader

Keir Starmer’s approval rating among the public is negative among all age groups, according to the latest YouGov poll, speaking volumes of the impact he makes when seen by the public and for the effect of his ‘red Toryism’.

Among 18-24yos, 25-49yos and 50-64yos, Starmer’s approval levels are significantly negative
