Labour’s conference is finishing off in much the same way it started: with party members determined to shout at each other rather than take the fight to the Tories.
During Keir Starmer’s big speech in Brighton, the Labour leader has been repeatedly heckled – including as he spoke about his mother’s harrowing ordeal in the intensive care ward of an NHS hospital.
