Starmer in regular talks with Blair ahead of election

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said he talks to Sir Tony Blair "a lot" to draw on his experience of preparing for power in 1997.

Sir Keir told Channel 5’s Jeremy Vine that he spoke to both Sir Tony and Gordon Brown about their experiences of moving from opposition into government.

He said it had been "really helpful" to hear from the New Labour figures about how they got ready ahead of the 1997 landslide.
