Inconclusive — not enough public evidence to rate.
“Keir Starmer is proud of what the Government is delivering on its side of the House.”
Reasoning & Evidence21 Jul 2026
The claim "Keir Starmer is proud of what the Government is delivering on its side of the House" is a claim about a personal emotional state — pride. While the speech context shows Starmer literally said "I am proud of what we are delivering on this side of the House," confirming the utterance itself does not constitute evidence about his actual internal state of mind. A claim about someone's subjective feelings cannot be corroborated or contradicted by public evidence. Per the evidence rules, sources that only confirm the speaker uttered the claim are not evidence about the world, and claims resting on a claimed state of mind fall into the "not-enough-evidence" category.
Sources: The speech text provided as context confirms the utterance but cannot establish the speaker's internal emotional state.
From speech
I am proud of what we are delivering on this side of the House. The fastest growing economy in the G7—they said it could not be done. Despite the war in the middle east, the OECD forecasts that UK growth is up and inflation is down. Net migration, which reached nearly a million under the Conservatives—the Leader of the Opposition was the cheerleader—is down by a staggering 82%. The asylum backlog is down by 46%. We are delivering the fastest reduction in waiting times in the history of the NHS. That is on top of free school meals, free breakfast clubs and free childcare—and, of course, we are lifting half a million children out of poverty. I am very proud of the work of this Labour Government.
