    Yeah, because it never ended.

    Is he gonna reverse that HS2 decision for example?

    Austerity never ended.

    He’s just going to keep public services underfunded and carry on the Tories legacy of austerity under the banner of “economic stability”. Starmer is a neoliberal.

    It was only called austerity in contrast to the previous vaguely social-democratic settlement. After a decade or two, it’s just the way things are. The Tories themselves announced the end of austerity a few years ago, without changing a single policy.
