LONDON: Keir Starmer has a massive inbox ahead of him when his Labour party takes over Britain’s government after nearly a decade and a half in opposition. “It’s more of a huge pile of problems,” political scientist Karl Pike told AFP, listing issues ranging from ending strikes in the state health service to negotiating a new post-Brexit deal with the European Union. Starmer, 61, has six priorities to “transform” the United Kingdom after 14 years of largely chaotic Conservative rule marked by Brexit, a crippling cost-of-living crisis and fraternal infighting.
