How credible is Labour's plan for growth?

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

Sir Keir Starmer has set out Labour's plans for government, saying economic growth is the party's "core business". We assess how credible Labour's plan to grow the economy really is - and get the view from businesses. Also tonight: World leaders at the G7 summit in Italy have made an historic agreement to raise $50bn dollars for Ukraine from frozen Russian assets. How much difference could that make? Celine Dion speaks about the illness that's kept her away from the stage - and how she's determined to sing again. And why does June feel more like January - what's causing our unseasonably cold weather?
