Tony Blair warns Labour lacks a clear plan

Former Prime Minister Tony Blair issued a stark warning to Labour, asserting his belief that the party lacks a clear strategy for the UK. He criticised Keir Starmer's leadership, asserting that Labour exhibits a profound tendency towards self-deception and is "playing with fire" with its current approach. Blair's strong intervention follows recent local election losses and comes 19 years after he left Downing Street.
