Sir Keir Starmer has suggested he is already planning for a second term in power after he set out his vision for fixing the nation's problems.
The Labour leader used a speech in Manchester to unveil five new "missions", including boosting economic growth, delivering an NHS "fit for the future" and making the UK a "clean energy superpower".
Sir Keir has previously spoken of the need for a "decade of national renewal" and he was asked after his address if he believed he would need two terms in government to achieve the "missions" he set out.
He said that while he was "humble" about the party's electoral chances he was also "honest enough to say that some of these issues are not going to be fixed within five years".
He said: "I am pretty humble about this. We lost badly in 2019 and my ambition is to take the Labour Party back into power. That will be an incredible journey if we are able to do it and I am mindful that every single vote has to be earned and we have got a long, long way to go.
"But I am also honest enough to say that some of these issues are not going to be fixed within five years. They are longer term than that."
