Jeremy Corbyn has vowed to take on “vested interests” in society as he set out a radical programme to invest in public services, tackle climate change and re-nationalise key utilities.

Launching Labour’s General Election manifesto in Birmingham, Mr Corbyn said they were offering an agenda for “real change” with policies the “political establishment” had blocked for a generation.

The 105-page document set out plans for what the party said was the “largest scale investment programme in modern times” to fund the jobs and industries of the future.

It includes:

– A “green industrial revolution” to tackle climate change with a shift to renewables and creating a million new jobs.

– Bringing back rail, mail, water and energy into public ownership and delivering full-fibre broadband free to everyone in the country

– Introducing a “real living wage” of at least £10-an-hour while ending zero hours contracts and strengthening trade union rights

– Getting Brexit “sorted” within six months, giving the public the final say in a referendum.

Mr Corbyn said: “This manifesto is the most radical and ambitious plan to transform our country in decades.

“In an election offering a once-in-a-generation chance of real change we can end privatisation and rescue our NHS.

“We can get Brexit sorted and bring our country together.

“We can tackle the climate emergency that threatens us all. And we can rewrite the rules of our economy to work for the many, not the few.”

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
