Labour leader Keir Starmer is set to make the strongest commitment yet in the party's upcoming manifesto to recognize a Palestinian state before the conclusion of any peace process. This move aims to solidify support among left-wing and Muslim voters. The manifesto will also address key domestic issues, including a substantial increase in childcare places and reforms to boost voter registration. However, there is an ongoing internal debate over the inclusion of workers' rights plans, which some party members believe could be a 'vote winner.' The manifesto's release follows a series of strategic meetings, including a crunch meeting on June 6, and is expected to be a pivotal document for Labour's campaign.

NEW from @PronouncedAlva @EllenAMilligan — Labour manifesto to include big childcare commitment with specific number of places — further voter registration reforms to boost turnout — Palestine in there, 2-child benefit not — but row on workers rights https://t.co/KHvXMtt7Gz
Sir Keir Starmer is being too timid. A Labour government is likely to oversee a modest economic recovery in Britain. But the party has not yet outlined a path to prosperity https://t.co/76el0m20WE 👇

Labour pledging to recognise a Palestinian state *before* the agreement of a peace deal. It won’t change the reality on the ground, but make no mistake, if this is true and if Labour follows through, it’s a status quo altering policy for the UK’s relationship with Israel. https://t.co/0K7GlF9Qzx

This is where we’re at in Britain. A manifesto that mentions Gaza over Glasgow. The weekly Hamas hordes must be appeased. Sir Keir Starmer is set to be our nation’s first leader to put foreign interests squarely before our own. https://t.co/QriIzXh8xL
