The Starmer Project

A beautifully written and balanced study, revealing of the man himself. -- Simon Jenkins, author of <i>Thatcher and Sons</i> A cogent left-wing critique. -- Andrew Grice * Independent * The meatiest biography of the leader of the opposition to date. -- Patrick Maguire * The Times * The Starmer Project is the most original and insightful of the book-length studies of Starmer. -- Andrew Sparrow * Guardian * Starmer's leadership cannot be understood without grasping the Corbyn project that flared to life in 2015, then decomposed and died in 2019. There remains, in most punditry, a lack of curiosity about that experience...Oliver Eagleton's The Starmer Project, the best account of his leadership so far, sets out to correct this. -- Richard Seymour * New Statesman * [A] persuasive new biography. -- Andy Beckett * Guardian * An enjoyably hostile new biography. * Economist * Brilliant, deserves to be widely read. It may end up as an obituary for Labour. -- Donald Sassoon * Political Quarterly *
