The Labour leader tells Sky News' Beth Rigby he is 'not going to make a promise before an election, which I don't think I can deliver after the election.'

Sir Keir Starmer has insisted he can be trusted to deliver his six pledges to voters - despite abandoning many of the promises that saw him elected Labour leader. In an interview with Sky News' political editor Beth Rigby, Sir Keir repeatedly defended his decision to 'adjust' some of the 10 pledges he made to party members when seeking to succeed Jeremy Corbyn following Labour's disastrous 2019 general election result.

The vast majority are in place, but I accept that some of them have been adjusted.
