Blair prominently used by Labour in election campaign ad for first time since he left office

Blair prominently used by Labour in election campaign ad for first time since he left office



Blair prominently used by Labour in election campaign ad for first time since he left office

Sir Keir Starmer has said he will not “hug any previous Labour leader” in his style of party leadership.

But he did pay tribute to former prime minister Sir Tony Blair, who has endorsed Sir Keir in a campaign video ahead of the local elections.

Asked by Sky News if he feels he is closer to the leadership of Sir Tony or Jeremy Corbyn, Sir Keir repeated a claim he made ahead of his election as Labour chief that he would not have “the name of some previous Labour leader tattooed on my forehead”.

Sir Keir added: “Let me just tell you what I said at the time, which was I am not going to hug any previous Labour leader because I don’t believe that you go backwards to go forward.

“I will learn from any Labour leader, I will talk with any Labour leader and if it is Tony Blair who has won three elections, Gordon Brown who won it with them, then I will happily take their advice and talk with them.

I want to win

“I spend my time talking to people who win because I want to win, I want to win because I want to change the lives of millions of people across the UK for the better.”

Sir Keir also said it is “very valuable” to have the endorsement of Sir Tony.

He said: “Tony Blair won three elections and the Labour Party doesn’t win elections very often, so I think having the endorsement of Tony Blair is very important, very valuable, and I think further demonstrates the amount of work we have done in the last two years, the change that we have made.

“I am very happy to talk to and with someone who has won three elections because I didn’t come into politics to be in opposition, I came into politics to win elections.”

Watch

Paul Waugh tweeted: “I think this is the first time, since he left office, that Tony Blair has been so directly used by Labour in an election campaign ad. Brown, Miliband, Corbyn all had reasons not to deploy him. @Keir_Starmer clearly thinks the anniversary of the 97 landslide is perfect timing.”
