Pat McFadden responds to the Conservatives’ manifesto launch

Pat McFadden, Labour's National Campaign Coordinator, responding to the Conservatives' manifesto launch, said:

“This Conservative Manifesto is a recipe for five more years of Tory chaos.

“After 14 years in power, the Prime Minister's desperate manifesto published today is stuffed full of unfunded spending commitments.

“The Prime Minister that was brought in to be the antidote to the chaos of Liz Truss has instead become the next instalment of the same thing.

“Tory desperation leads to costs for the British people. The public is still paying the price of the Conservatives crashing the economy. Now they promise a repeat if they win again leading to higher mortgages and a weaker economy.

“After today the choice at this election could not be clearer: five more years of chaos with the Conservatives or stability and growth with Labour.”
