Sir Keir warns mini-budget 'does nothing' for working people – but doesn't say if he would reverse tax cuts

Sir Keir Starmer has accused the Conservatives of showing their “true colours” by unveiling tax cuts that will benefit the wealthiest most.

Arriving at Labour’s party conference in Liverpool, he vowed to set out a plan for “an economy that works for working people” – unlocking “growth for everyone”.

According to the Opposition, the mini-budget will benefit the richest 1%, and make the next generation worse off.
