Keir Starmer insists Labour is not scaling back ambition, despite watered down pledges

Keir Starmer has offered pleadges to the electorate and spoke on eradicating child poverty on Thursday, but again refused to scrap the two-child benefit cap.
The UK Labour leader said his party would "put a strategy in place" for ending child poverty. But he said "there are things that we might want to do but we can't because the economy has been damaged."
Starmer was speaking in Essex as he launched Labour's "first steps for change".
The six pledges were mostly about devolved issues - like policing, education and the NHS - but Labour will set out different ones for Scotland in the future.
