The Tories and Labour will be preparing for another face-off set to air on the BBC on Friday evening – as will five other political parties – for what promises to be a lively debate.
The deadline for candidates to file nominations for the General Election is on Friday, with the statement of nominees to be published at 5pm, setting in stone the list of hopefuls running in the July 4 vote. Meanwhile, Sir Keir Starmer denied accusations he was purging the left of the party to improve its electoral prospects.
The details of the gathering and the finer points of the policy document are being kept tightly under wraps after 2017’s manifesto was leaked. Amid a bitter clash between Labour and the Tories over tax policy, the Conservatives have pledged to raise the high income child benefit tax charge threshold to £120,000 – and charge it to households rather than individuals.It comes amid a wider row following Mr Sunak’s disputed claim that Sir Keir would hike taxes by more than £2,000.
