ANDREW NEIL: Keir Starmer is the Prime Minister because he is not a Conservative

Keir Starmer became leader of the Labour Party four years ago on Thursday. A lot of political water has since flowed under the bridge. Not being a Tory is enough to make him PM is not enough to be a Tory, says Andrew Neil. Starmer has been a Labour leader for four years, but not a Tory.

People pay attention to what Labour's Rachel Reeves has to say these days because it's widely (and correctly) assumed she will be Chancellor of the Exchequer before the year is out. After 14 years in exile, Labour has no radical thinking, writes Andrew Neil.
