Labour's manifesto officially confirmed after embarrassing leak to pressBen Kentish (The Independent, 11/05/2017)

The gathering, held at the Institute of Engineering and Technology in Westminster, took place after the entirety of the draft manifesto had been leaked to media the night before.

Doctor Who

Labour manifesto pledges to restore Tom Baker as Doctor Who
(The Daily Mash, 11/05/2017)
Labour's manifesto promises to reverse decades of free-market mismanagement and return Tom Baker to his rightful position as Doctor Who.
The leaked manifesto claims the ‘Thatcherite’ Peter Davison era was a ‘betrayal of the working classes’, and that it, and all subsequent incarnations, would be declared invalid.
Jeremy Corbyn said: “There has only ever been one, true Doctor Who and we all know it.
