Keir Starmer says Labour would offer a "decade of national renewal" in government

Sir Keir Starmer has insisted there are real dividing lines between Labour and the Conservatives ahead of the looming general election.

The Labour leader dismissed criticism his policies are not different enough to PM Rishi Sunak's.

He told the BBC his plans to decarbonise electricity by 2030 and build more homes were among "huge" areas of disagreement.

And he said the election would enable voters to "test this in practice".

Sir Keir was speaking after a new year speech in which he vowed to defeat the Tories with "project hope" and fight the election on the economy.

Rishi Sunak has said his "working assumption" was that the next election - which must take place by January 2025 - would take place in the second half of this year.

Would Labour spend £28bn a year on green projects?
