The Labour Leader gave a speech yesterday which served as a welcome thawing of hostilities, says Record View
Pro-UK parties compete for Unionist voters without seriously considering how to broaden their appeal to independence supporters.

Starmer has not gone soft on independence, or IndyRef2, but he is trying to find common ground with voters who have been lost to Labour.
