Jeremy Corbyn says he hopes the General Election will be a "day of reckoning" for those he says have been "asset stripping our industry, crashing our economy through their greed".
Today the Labour Leader will launch his battle bus saying the Conservative Party is to blame for "tax cheats" and "greedy bankers" - and he wants to "ruin their party".
He will say: "When Labour wins there will be a reckoning for those who thought they could get away with asset stripping our industry, crashing our economy through their greed and ripping off workers and consumers."
He will add: "Don't wake on up on 9 June to see celebrations from the tax cheats, the press barons, the greedy bankers, Philip Green, the Southern Rail directors and crooked financiers that take our wealth, who have got away with it because the party they own, the Conservative Party, has won.
"We have four weeks to ruin their party. We have four weeks to take our wealth back."
While being clear that the super-rich will be his target for greater scrutiny and taxation, Mr Corbyn will claim that a Labour win would be a victory for nurses, teachers, builders and office workers.
On the EU negotiations he will talk about negotiating a "jobs-first Brexit".
On Monday, Theresa May made clear one of her Brexit red lines was controlling immigration and hitting the long-failed tens of thousands target. The Labour camp believe this is a real contrast in their priorities.
However, in an interview for the New Statesman, Labour's London Mayor, Sadiq Khan, said there was "an issue on the doorstep, which is people are unclear about the Labour position (on Brexit) nationally".
He added "Everyone's clear about my position in London, you know where you stand with the Tories - extreme hard Brexit - you know where you stand with the Lib Dems: they wish the referendum had never happened and want a second one. People are less clear about Labour's position nationally."
