What went wrong for Sir Keir Starmer | The Economist (Level 1)

Keir Starmer became the Prime Minister with a big win. However, people say he arrived without a real plan. He just wanted to make good decisions. But being a leader is hard, and many people think he is not good at it. Starmer wanted to be a normal manager, not a typical politician. Voters liked this idea at first. Now, they see that politics requires special skills. His team is unhappy because he often blames them for mistakes. Other politicians are angry because they think he is wasting a big chance. He has made some unpopular choices, like cutting money for winter heating. These choices upset people but did not bring big benefits. Some people blame the news for making him look bad. However, critics say he simply has not done enough important things yet. He needs a better plan to succeed.
