It have been leaked and one of the good points is that they will not leave the eu without a deal, here is some other points:
Spend an extra £8bn on social care over the next Parliament
Refuse to make "false promises" on immigration
Stress that any leader should be "extremely cautious" about using Trident nuclear weapons, which leader Jeremy Corbyn opposes
Strengthen trade union rights - including increased unionisation across the workforce and repealing last year's Trade Union Act
Scrap the public sector pay cap and reintroduce national pay bargaining
Ban so-called "zero hours" contracts
Increase income tax for the highest earning 5% to raise an extra £6bn for the NHS
Build at least 100,000 council and housing association houses a year
Reserve 4,000 homes for rough sleepers
What do you think of their draft? ![](/icons/s/razz.gif) |

"Great ideas...I am not sure they stand a chance plus I cannot stand Diane Abbott "
The thought of Diane Abbott as home secretary is scary! Emily Thornberry came out and said the other day if Labour win Trident could be scrapped. Then the shadow defence secretary said it was her job to talk about defence and it's Labour policy to keep trident. They are divided over it and Corbyn wants to scrap trident too. Labour are putting the security of the country at risk. Vote Conservative to keep them out and the tories are United on keeping and renewing trident. |

Yes i love the threat of nuclear war at our doorstep. Say we decide to use Trident one day on our enemiez what do you think the consequences would be?? Nuclear weapons is always a deciding factor for me when it comes to voting a genearal election fuck the nhs, Schools, Job protection, Wages, Disabled, Police, Poor. As long as we have a big bomb we are all gonna be okay.

So you'd rather countries like Russia and North Korea have nuclear weapons and we don't? Because they will continue to have them whether you like it or not and no amount of pacifist clap trap from the likes of hippy Corbyn will persuade them to get rid of their nukes. It makes us safer having our own nuclear deterrent. |

Well I'm just glad I don't live in your world of paranoia and media fuelled propaganda!! Like the last post says there are plenty of countries without a Nuclear deterrent and they seem to be doing just fine. I'd rather concern myself on the real threat to our lives Cancer!! It effects more of us than the Noth Koreans and bloody Russians or any Immigrant. We need to put our NHS first. because thats whats gonna save most of our lives in the end. |

Voting Conservative is the sensible option for strong and stable leadership with a united party. A vote for Labour is a vote for a divided party with a potential coalition of chaos with the Lib dems/SNP and clueless Corbyn as Prime minister. |

Strong and stable my arse. May doesn't even know what she's doing and her manifesto is just complete horse crap. It's like she doesn't even want to win. If you vote Tory then you're most definitely the clueless one ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |

I'm a bit worried that the warning against socialism is coming true with the Tory party. 1984 is coming to 2017. |

You're a bit confused. If it was down to the Labour party 1983 is coming to 2017 |

£40,000 in tuition fees is a fucking big incentive to vote labour. ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

The problem is Matt that the alternative isn't really there. Labours offer of the many can have everything they want because the few are going to pay for it all is so full of holes it's unworkable. LibDems, unfortunately, just don't seem to be cutting through.
So far the only serious mistake the Conservative's have made, and it is a big one, is on Social Services but they'll have changed that before the week, possibly even the day, is out. |

I thought having a degree was meant to mean a much higher earning total over a life time so why expect others to pay for that education? Perhaps the tax payer would like to invest in my business so I can make a higher profit without me having to put my cash and hard work into it. More socialist thinking let someone else make my life easier so I dont have to. |

I don't buy into all this strong and stable BS, especially as the most destabilising thing for Britain is leaving the EU. However I'm not going to vote for Corbyn as I don't want a government that's setting out to only govern for the many when it's the first duty of any government to govern for all.
PS. you forgot to mention that Corbyn is un-electable."

Not if they look at the reality of what tuition fees actually cost them and the likely consequent of removing then; which is far fewer university places. |

"Brexitors living in a fantasy world I see lol.
Problem is Labour, and particularly Corbyn, have backed hard BREXIT so far at every turn. Voting Labour won't stop BREXIT. Voting LibDem might." Yes and as only lib dems want to be in the eu and knows the importance of the single market. |

It would be interesting to know what percentage of the Swedish population go on to university (degree level) education. In the UK it's 45% with a target of 50%+. When we had grants and free tuition it was 10%.
As generally those with degrees get more pay than those without not having tuition fees now would mean that the 50% on lower wages would actually be subsidising the 50% on higher wages. |

Yes strange with the percentages there with the grants in the uk. I am not sure about swedens % but sweden is ranked 2nd best higher education system in world in the league table, the reason of that could be as it is free as many are doing it. |
