Launching a manifesto which contained no new policy announcements, Sir Keir denied he was being overly cautious in his efforts to put his party back in power for the first time since 2010.
Repeatedly stressing how he had changed Labour since taking over from Jeremy Corbyn, Sir Keir said he was now offering a “serious plan for the future of our country”.
The manifesto focused on a goal of generating economic growth and making Labour the “party of wealth creation”.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said the Labour plan would result in “the highest taxes in history”.
Sir Keir warned that there was no “magic wand” and the problems an incoming Labour administration would inherit will not “disappear overnight”.
