EU is not a ‘silver bullet’ to save Britain’s economy, says Sir Keir Starmer

THE EU isn’t a “silver bullet” to save Britain’s economy, Sir Keir Starmer said yesterday.

In a speech in London the Labour chief insisted it would be a “mistake” to blame Britain’s cost of living woes on divorcing Brussels.

He said he wouldn’t run back cap in hand to euro chiefs begging to rejoin the bloc.

But he added a Labour government would seek closer economic ties in order to boost growth.
