Labour manifesto 2019 LIVE: Jeremy Corbyn vows to take on 'vested interests' in society as he announces public sector pay-hike

Jeremy Corbyn vowed to take on the "vested interests" in society in a bid to "transform" Britain as he launched Labour's manifesto.

Mr Corbyn said the party was 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, a "real living wage" of at least £10-per-hour and providing additional funding the NHS.
