British Prime Minister Keir Starmer bungled by excess caution on every major front, writes Andrew Keen .
Keen: Starmer needs to earn his mandate by channeling the popular desire for drastic change.
Keen says Britain has underperformed every other major economy in the West for two decades .
The British economy needed a massive overhaul, Keen writes.
But the Tory collapse is small comfort for Starmer and Labour , which has until the next general election, which is not required until 2029 , to find a more compelling set of policies. The early signs are not encouraging. Once again, a feeble center-left party that delivers little for struggling citizens hemorrhages support to the far right. How many times, in how many countries, do we need to learn this lesson?.
