‘How Starmer’s speech has changed my mind’: LBC caller

Описание: Keir Starmer's speech struck an unexpected chord with caller Carlton - who is gay, mixed race and not usually a Labour voter.

Carlton tells Shelagh Fogarty that he was planning to leave the UK, but has changed his mind after the PM's 'fantastic' speech.

Britain faces a “defining choice” between “decency” and “division”, Sir Keir Starmer warned, as he delivered his speech to the Labour Party conference.

Last week, Sir Keir told a gathering of progressives in London that the UK faced a “battle for the soul” of the country, a theme he will repeat in Liverpool, where he has already described Reform’s immigration policy as “racist”.

He said: “We can all see our country faces a choice, a defining choice. Britain stands at a fork in the road.

“We can choose decency. Or we can choose division. Renewal or decline.

“A country, proud of its values, in control of its future, or one that succumbs, against the grain of our history, to the politics of grievance.”
