16:33Now PlayingWes Streeting has urged voters not to hand "the matches back to the arsonists to finish the job" as he warned against complacency over polls predicting a Labour landslide.
Speaking to Sky News' Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips, the shadow health secretary stressed the choice at the election as he branded the Tory manifesto "Liz Truss's budget on steroids" and raised the prospect of "a nightmare on Downing Street" if the governing party was returned.
Mr Streeting made his comments as fresh polls signalled a further grim outlook for Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, with one indicating the Conservatives are on course to pick up just 72 seats.
