His rival Sir Keir Starmer is going on a tour of the UK, with visits to Wales, Scotland and England.

Sir Ed Davey, the leader of the Liberal Democrats, will be visiting a handful of his party’s key target seats in the “Blue Wall” while Nigel Farage will be banging the drum for Reform UK and his own candidacy in his chosen seat of Clacton.
