Labour will use its upcoming annual conference to condemn the legacy of 14 years of Conservative rule. Senior figures including chancellor Rachel Reeves are expected to criticise the Tory party's record on managing the country during its time in power.

Labour to condemn Tory legacy at party conference

It is understood that Labour’s “inheritance” will be one of the big themes of the event, being held in Liverpool at the end of this month. The four-day event comes just weeks before Ms Reeves delivers the first ever Budget from a female chancellor.

Sir Keir Starmer has already warned the country will be hit with a “very painful Budget”, as his new Labour administration tries to “fix the rot” left by the Tories. Within weeks of entering office Ms Reeves also announced she had found a £22bn black hole in the public finances, left by the previous government.

In response, she announced a series of measures including stripping the winter fuel payment from millions of older people, a decision expected to be widely discussed on the conference fringe.
