## Resource

Sir Tony Blair unleashes a blistering critique of the current Labour government, slamming its lack of a coherent strategy just 20 months in — warning that without a bold, reset plan, Britain risks falling behind in a fast-changing world. He argues recent policies like hiking employer NI, the workers’ rights bill, and minimum wage hikes are stifling growth, while also calling for pension reform and a smarter foreign policy — including backing away from blocking US airbases and tackling the small boats crisis. With a ten-point agenda spotlighting AI and global competitiveness, Blair subtly names Andy Burnham and Wes Streeting as potential leaders, insisting the real problem isn’t leadership style — it’s the absence of a forward-thinking, workable vision. He urges both UK and EU to rebuild cooperation on shared priorities like defense and energy, framing Brexit as a mutual setback that demands a new, pragmatic partnership.
