He says all the right things, but why listen when so little seems to be getting done? Isabel Hardman looks at the internal power struggle inside the government and why the certain type of person getting the PM's ear means he's struggling to connect with anyone

The article from The Independent discusses Keir Starmer's potential path to becoming the UK's next prime minister, highlighting his background, political journey, and current standing within the Labour Party. Starmer, a former human rights lawyer and Director of Public Prosecutions, has led Labour since April 2020, focusing on transforming the party from its more left-wing stance under Jeremy Corbyn to a more centrist position. His leadership has seen Labour recover in the polls, with recent by-election victories and a significant lead over the Conservatives. Despite facing internal party challenges, including criticism over his stance on issues like Brexit and his handling of antisemitism allegations, Starmer has managed to reposition Labour as a credible alternative to the Conservative government. The article also touches on his personal life, his knighthood, and his approach to politics, which emphasizes competence and a return to traditional Labour values while appealing to a broader electorate.
