UK Prime Minister Starmer has warned Britons in a speech about impending cuts. According to the Labor Prime Minister, a “painful” budget is coming.

Starmer said the previous government had left a “£22 billion economic black hole”. “Things are worse than we could have ever imagined. “

At the end of October, when the House of Commons adopts the budget, it must be clear what the government will cut back. The Prime Minister emphasized that the heaviest responsibilities should be carried on the strongest shoulders. But neutral measures seem inevitable, he warned.

“It’s going to get worse before it gets better,” Starmer said several times, referring to his campaign slogan “Things can only get better”.

‘Trees in the foundations’

In his speech, Starmer took a sharp swipe at previous Tory governments. According to him, they continued on “populist” policies that “have caused cracks in the foundations of society”.

Starmer also mentioned the recent riots in the United Kingdom, which targeted Muslims and migrants. These riots arose after three children were stabbed to death in the British coastal town of Southport by a 17-year-old boy from a nearby town.

This was followed by an attack on a mosque in which dozens of police officers were injured. In the following days, the violence spread to many other cities in the United Kingdom. During the riots, several reception areas were opened for asylum seekers stormy.

“The riots not only showed the disease, they showed the cure,” said the Prime Minister. “The people who gathered across the country the next morning with their brooms, shovels and trowels to clean them up. They remind us of who we really are.”

Big win

Star he came to power in july after his party great effect achieved in the elections. This ended fourteen years of Tory rule. At that time, there were five different prime ministers at the helm and the United Kingdom left the European Union.
