Whatever benefits these measures are supposed to bring the average Brit, they are not yet feeling them.

In fact this is easily picked apart.

folk on benefits have never had it so good - just imagine a country where we can all live on benefits, work a thing of the past, no police no courts no prisons and enough migrants to fully enrich us all

Stirling!
What's Scotland got to do with it?
If Wes has pulled out, then there's not much of a contest. Any other candidate would just be taking part to make up the numbers.
Might as well just give him the keys and the WiFi code now.

Why not mention the other Labour PMs?
Callahan became a millionaire but through investments and property.
Wilson struggled financially. Only when his missus died decades after he did was the estate worth a couple of mill.
Atlee's fortune reflected his socialist values. He was the greatest 20th Century PM, but had very modest means.
When MacDonald left office, he was in poor health and was not able to earn money.
Much of this means diddly squat.
e.g. tougher on water companies. Maybe that just means the previous agreement was complete and utter sh1te, and the 'tougher' agreement is slightly less sh1te but still sh1te.
It's the delivery of stuff that's important, not words like lifted, reintroduced, approved, expanded, supported etc etc.
He certainly didn't do Scottish Labour any favours. Their popularity in Scotland plummeted, much of which can be linked to Starmer in a by association sense.
Keeping his head down in that big hole he’s been digging for months.
