It was an own goal and rightly pissed off most trade unions. I doubt it plays that well with the public either.
Total hypocrisy too - I didn't see Rachel Reeves getting the boot for 'making up' Labour policy earlier in the week. Or is the main factor whether it comes from a junior or a senior shadow minister? Or whether the interviews come from a Starmer loyalist or someone who backs striking workers in the middle of a cost of living crisis?
