Investment manager Justin Urquhart Stewart has branded Keir Starmer and the Labour government ‘useless’ for its reaction to the oil crisis sparked by the Iran war.

Urquhart Stewart says the government ‘is not leading’ by coming in front of the country with a plan to mitigate an energy crisis, with experts fearing oil barrels could breach the $200 mark, which would prompt a global recession.

The financier slams the ‘amateur’ Labour government for refusing to walk back net zero policies harming the UK’s energy security, and investors like him are shunning government debt, with 10 year bond yields now reaching 4.7%.

Justin Urquhart Stewart says Britain is ‘uniquely vulnerable’ to the coming global downturn, and he lays the blame at Labour’s door.
