jim reed reporting from cumbria.bbc news website. the independent institute for fiscal studies have been looking at the parties manifestos pledges, comparing the tax and spending plans of the lib dems, labour and the conservatives they haven't had time to look at the snp yet as their manifesto only came out yesterday. and they've been analysing who stands to lose and gain from what the parties are putting forwards. i've been speaking to christine farquarson from the institute. let's start with the main headlines from your analysis. the biggest story in the election is how different what the different parties are proposing are. under the conservatives, not very much would change in terms of public spending, paid for by not very big increases in taxes under the plans outlined in the manifesto. labour has doubled down on the commitments from seven -- 2017 down on the commitments from seven —— 2017 and instead of promising an extra 50 billion, they are promising closer to 70 billion on their own costings and that's even

the brexit party leader nigel farage has been campaigning in workington in cumbria this morning. borisjohnson's new deal with the eu was 95% the same as theresa may's deal, which was rejected by mps three times. he also said that labour would betray leave voters. the green party launched its election campaign this morning. it's pledging a major increase in spending on climate measures in order to end the use of carbon in the uk by 2030. 0ur reality check correspondent sophie hutchinson has been looking into the promises. well, yes, the green party insisted today that some things were "bigger than brexit" and that this election must be about the climate and they launched this ambitious plan. today i am proud to announce the green party will invest £100 billion a year into climate action over the next decade. so let's have a look at that. in total that's around a trillion pounds in ten years, it's certainly a very large number. to put it in context, the annual cost would be similar to the whole of the education budget, which this year was £103 billion. so where would the money come

me is the bbc‘s political editorfor with me is the bbc‘s political editor for the north—east and cumbriaonstituency, and there will be some happy with labour's stance nationally on brexit, but given what we've heard today, how much trouble are they in? labour candidates in seats like this will save they have two problems, one is brexit and the other isjeremy corbyn, because they are finding it difficult to persuade voters to give him a chance. they sometimes like his policies but they have a real hostility to the labour leader. in addition, the conservatives have learnt some lessons since 20 is 15, and they are talking about more police on the streets, investment in schools and hospitals, but the challenge for the tories is to convince areas like this that they are the party to put austerity into reverse, and can they ove 1120 m e austerity into reverse, and can they overcome the fact that they don't have the kind of electoral machine and history in places like this that mitt has, and the brexit party are still standing in seats like this in the north—east. they hope they will do as much

the brexit party leader, nigel farage, has told supporters in cumbria that the idea of ‘workington manection is ‘patronising cobblers'. at a rally in workington, which voted to leave in the 2016 referendum, mr farage claimed that labour would betray leave voters. the town found itself in the spotlight, after a think—tank said conservatives would have to target traditional labour voters from regional towns such as workington, in order to win the election. the green party also launched their campaign today — and just after 5.30 our reality check correspondent will be taking an in—depth look at what the party is proposing. stay with us for that. today was the intended date of sajid javid's first budget as chancellor. the failure to implement a brexit deal, and the general election campaign means that the budget has been delayed. had it not been delayed, what would the fiscal backdrop to today's budget have been? the institute for fiscal studies has released a report analysing what the budget might have said. the economic research organisation claims that downgraded growth forecasts, the s
