End to the Bedroom Tax, Restoration of the 10p starting rate of income tax and the 50p top rate, bringing forward £10bn of infrastructure spending to build 1 million homes over 5 years and to bring down unemployment, job guarantee for everyone out of work paid for by cutting tax relief on fat cat pensions and through new bankers bonus tax, stopped another war/attack in the Middle East, government contracts only going to employers who pay the living wage.... the press are too busy pouring slime on Ed Miliband to report on this.

It isn't anywhere near enough to deal with all the problems created by both Blue and Red Tories over the last 30 years... but it is a start.

And on policy now, they've got some good ideas on zero hour contracts, on gangmasters and other things. Very limited still but moving in the right direction.
