What time is the Labour party 2024 manifesto launch, and where?

James Moules

The Labour party’s 2024 general election manifesto, which will set out the party’s programme for government for the next five years, is due to be released today.

The launch event will be held in Greater Manchester, with the event expected to kick off at around 11am – and the manifesto document expected to be published soon after.

Look out for live updates, reaction and a live-stream on our site this morning.

All eyes will be on the manifesto release, which will not only reveal the broad vision Labour wants to pitch to voters, but also set out key policy specifics in a wide range of areas.

LabourList previously published a roundup of likely manifesto policies based on a recent campaign document, and more recently published a list of measures linked to Labour’s “first steps” pledges that all but certain to feature.

Details themed around Labour’s missions and key promises such as the foundation of GB Energy and a new Border Security Command are likely to be included, and the party is likely to seek to reassure voters all promises are fully costed.

The policies were signed off last week in Labour’s Clause V meeting, which saw senior party stakeholders – or most of them at least – endorse the plans.
