Labour manifesto launch interrupted by protester

A protester disrupted the Labour party's manifesto launch, claiming that the party was merely rehashing "the same old Tory policies." In a Manchester hall filled with party members and journalists, a woman stood on her chair shortly after Sir Keir Starmer began his speech, criticising the Labour leader for the partyโ€™s manifesto promises.

Sir Keirโ€™s shot back: โ€œWe gave up on being a party of protest five years ago, we want to be a party in power.โ€ Report by Covellm.
