Just as Tony Blair leaves the stage after launching his party's manifesto at the Mermaid Theatre, Michael Howard pops up at Tory campaign HQ. Dismissing Labour's manifesto (pdf) as all talk, he tells reporters: "There is one thing you can be certain of: if Mr Blair gets in again taxes will go up again."
Meanwhile, Labour's website has a "personalised promises" script which purports to tell you how the manifesto affects you.
