<p>The unit, which would come from Labour’s media team, would begin work following a proposed restructuring of the party.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>The comments came as a YouGov poll for <i>Sky News</i> of people eligible to vote in the leadership election put Mr Starmer on 53%, well ahead of left-wing candidate Rebecca Long-Bailey on 31% and Lisa Nandy on 16%.</p>
<p>The survey suggests Mr Starmer could win in the first round of the ballot.</p>
<p>I want to see a properly deployed Attack and Rebuttal Unit that lays bare every single Tory failure,” he wrote in the Daily Mirror.</p>
<p>The Holborn and St Pancras MP wrote in his column that the party had to unite if it was to earn voters’ trust and move from opposition to Government.</p>
<p>“People won’t trust us if we spend more time fighting ourselves than the Tories,” he added.</p>
<p>He also proposed a programme for the next two decades “every bit as transformative as the one” Labour founder Keir Hardie proposed 120 years ago.</p>
<blockquote><p>What they were saying was we want change, desperately want change, but we don&#8217;t trust your party</p></blockquote>

<p>Earlier, the leadership frontrunner said Prime Minister Boris Johnson won December general election because Labour made the Conservative leader look good.</p>
<p>He denied that the Prime Minister’s force of personality was a key part of the Tory victory, telling ITV’s Peston: “No. We made him look good.</p>
<p>“I think I went to 44 constituencies with campaign teams in the general election – nobody reported back to me the people were saying ‘Boris Johnson’s great, he’s just what we want’.</p>
<p>“What they were saying was we want change, desperately want change, but we don’t trust your party.”</p>

<p>They will also select a new deputy leader from Angela Rayner, Dawn Butler, Ian Murray, Dr Rosena Allin-Khan and Richard Burgon.</p>
<p>The winners are set to be named on April 4 and will take up the roles immediately.</p>
