Keir Starmer sets out plans for new transport system

Sir Keir Starmer slammed the previous government's "empty promises" as he set out his plans for improvements to the North of England rail system.

"The last government made so many promises, none of which they followed through on.

I'm only making promises where we're putting the money on the table right now," Mr Starmer said.
