The Green Party’s clear tactic since the start of this campaign has been to paint Labour as being too similar to the Conservatives.
Ahead of the election launch, Mr Ramsay said: “Labour and the Conservatives would rather hide their plans for cuts to public services than confront the need for a fairer tax system that asks those with the broadest shoulders to pay more – including the very wealthiest in society who have grown even wealthier over the last 14 years.”
“With more Green MPs in Parliament we will stop Labour backtracking on any more of their promises.
“We will push them to be braver, to be more ambitious, and to actually do what’s necessary to fix our broken country and get us back on track.”
The Greens plan to field candidates in every constituency in England and Wales for the 4 July election, but the party will focus their efforts on four seats they see as winnable.
Separately the Green Party has confirmed four candidates stood down after it launched an investigation into reports of antisemitic or extreme comments.
The Scottish Greens are a separate party.
The manifesto launch will take place in Brighton and Hove, the constituency that returned the only Green MP, Caroline Lucas, and a key target for the party.
Sian Berry, the party’s candidate for the constituency, said: “The time for half-measures and empty promises is over. Only the Green Party is offering real hope and real change at this election.”
News will be covering the manifesto launch live, including questions to the party at a press conference and analysis of the details of their plans.
