Full Description
Who is Keir Starmer? When Keir Starmer won the Labour Party Leadership election in April 2020, the expectation was that he would quickly become a fierce Leader of the Opposition as a former director of public prosecutions, human-rights barrister and genuinely keen football supporter. Instead, his performance was not as surefooted as his supporters had hoped for, or his opponents feared. Four years later, he is Prime Minister nonetheless. But more because of the self-inflicted harm by Boris Johnson, Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak than because of the clear idea what Starmer stands for as a person. This biography seeks to uncover the real man behind the politician.
