What Jeremy Corbyn will say in his leader’s speech

Jeremy Corbyn will use his leader’s speech on Wednesday to promise change. The Labour leader will vow to change the direction of the way the economy is done. He’ll say a Labour government will  do this in a way to benefit the majority and pin the need for change to the financial crisis – criticising the immediate efforts to prop up the system (led by former Labour  PM Gordon Brown, lest we forget) and pinpointing bailouts as the worst excess of modern capitalism.

Aside from a not so veiled dig at a former PM who was only recently hailed by his shadow chancellor on Monday, there will be a diatribe against privitisation – chronicling the ways in which he thinks it has let people down – and Corbyn will outline a green agenda. The big policy announcement will be a drive to bring about a green jobs revolution – arguing that this will allow the country to meet a 60pc carbon emission reduction target.
