Keir Starmer is probably huddling with his most trusted allies right now, asking for advice on how to recover from what is a disastrous showing at the local elections. Here is my unsolicited advice to him:

If Keir Starmer really wants to "reset" his government, here are 3 hugely popular things he could do that would cut through with the public:

1. Nationalise water and fire Emma Reynolds. 80% of the public supports this. The amount of anger toward water companies and the Environment Secretary is huge. Put yourself on the right side of it.

2. Announce investment to rebuild NHS facilities, scrap plans for new PFI and fire Wes Streeting. If a leadership fight with Streeting is inevitable, this makes it a policy fight. With this agenda, he can accuse Streeting of selling out Labour’s biggest historic achievement, and he’d be on the same side as 87% of the public.

3. Nationalise Royal Mail. This is a bigger issue for millions of people than politicians realise. Just go and watch the Royal Mail Urgent Questions that took place on the 11th of March. People are missing NHS appointments right now because letters from their doctors are not being delivered.

There's more that he can do, but these are arguably the easiest ways to immediately start sending a powerful signal that he is serious about REAL CHANGE. People don’t just need to see or read about change.

People need to feel in their guts that he is on their side and is taking on the interests they want taken on.
