Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has criticized the Conservative Party's latest manifesto, comparing it to a 'Jeremy Corbyn style manifesto.' He argued that the Conservatives had created a broad, unfunded plan, reminiscent of the ambitious proposals made by former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.

Starmer's remarks came before Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's manifesto launch at the Silverstone race track.

Sunak defended his plan, claiming it would lead to economic recovery and lower borrowing by 2029-30.

He also announced policies like a new Help to Buy scheme and a 2p cut in employee National Insurance.

However, Starmer highlighted gaps in funding, arguing against matching the proposed tax cuts and pointing out the unfunded nature of the manifesto.

Starmer's comparisons extend to Sunak's predecessor Liz Truss, warning of economic instability from unfunded commitments.

The manifesto has drawn skepticism from figures like Paul Johnson of the Institute for Fiscal Studies and criticism from other parties, including the SNP, Liberal Democrats, and Greens.
