The party wants to give over-18s skills to tackle climate change and help them stop being shut out of work by automation.

General election: Boris Johnson welcomes Nigel Farage's decision not to stand in seats won by Tories in 2017

They will also promise to give adults skills to tackle climate change and stop being shut out of work by automation, aiding their bid for a"green industrial revolution".The proposals are estimated by Labour to cost £2.6bn on education entitlement, and a further £573m on maintenance grants from 2023/24.

Shadow Treasury minister Jonathan Renolds called it"fake news", as the party has not yet published its manifesto. "The original research was criticised for costing policies that will not be appearing in Labour's manifesto, such as the financial implications of the abolition of all private schools, and relying on heavily disputed research such as the cost of the four day working week.

He said similar for 17 election and afterwards said it wasn’t true

Plus free food and holidays for all

It’s not free though is it? Tax payers will be hit with the bill... another Labour lie that will cost hard workers!!

They are saying lots of things at the moment. Is it in their manifesto? I don't know because they haven't published it yet.

No such thing as a free lunch

Free free free free. What is wrong with people!

I thought we already had free education-it’s called “schools”.

'for adults'... doesn't he mean UK citizens, or is he planning on using UK tax money to educate non-UK citizens?

Can't trust the Labour , their plan seems fiscally unrealistic. It just seems like Corbyn wants to get power anyhow and become someone like Stalin. His allies in the world will be all the dictators and Military Juntas.

This would be for the last shadow cabinet?
