Summary
It was Labour’s turn to launch their election manifesto today. It was a restatement of the party’s main policies with no surprise announcements in the 133-page document. <br /> <br />Sir Keir Starmer reiterated his key pledges including no new taxes on “working people” and a promise of “economic stability”. <br /> <br />Niall Paterson digs into Labour’s promise of economic growth with Ed Conway, Sky’s economics and data editor, and speaks to political correspondent Serena Barker-Singh, who was at the launch in Manchester. <br /> <br />Plus, John McTernan, political strategist and former political secretary to Tony Blair, discusses the politics of their manifesto and whether it matters that there were no new announcements. <br /> <br />Producer: Sydney Pead <br />Editor: Wendy Parker <br />Promotions Producer: Jada-Kai Meosa John
