Conservatives delay manifesto launch

11:02 AM

Tory manifesto now on Tues. Was going to be Mon but Labour decided to do same day. Cons say they want a day to 'scrutinise' the Lab doc.

Labour will launch on Monday, Conservatives on Tuesday and Ukip on Wednesday.

The Liberal Democrats have not officially confirmed the day their manifesto will be published but it is expected early next week.
