Manifesto launches are a significant moment in any general election campaign, and Thursday’s publication of Labour’s manifesto is a big chance for Keir Starmer to set out how his party would govern if it wins the general election on 4 July.

So how plausible are the manifesto’s plans? What are the big dividing lines with the Conservatives? How would a Labour government pay for public services? And what does the manifesto tell us about the priorities of a Labour government after 14 years in opposition?

In this General Election 2024 webinar, the Institute for Government gives an expert briefing on what is in the Labour manifesto – and what it would mean for government.

Panellists included:

Sam Freedman, author of Failed State

Stuart Hoddinott, Senior Researcher at the Institute for Government

Gemma Tetlow, Chief Economist at the Institute for Government

Emma Norris, Deputy Director of the Institute for Government (chair)
