    Brilliant.
    Now try offering a credible economic alternative to the Tory economic scenario of exploit and abuse the weakest in society in order to enrich the already wealthy?

    We know that “endogenous growth theory” was “not Brown but Balls” …but now we’ve worked out that it’s “balls” can he spend a little more time offering a coherent plan based on a clear commitment to the idea that those who work should receive the rewards of their labours rather than handing it to their masters?
    It’s not about tweeking indicators Ed ….Its’ about fundamental principles.

    Or is it to be another Labour term of office handed to them by default ….in which case it will be a case of Carry on up New Labour with “balls balls banquets and Balls”?

    Making sure we hear young people’s voices

    Young people have been some of the hardest hit by the Coalition’s cuts. Tuition fees trebled, the Future Jobs Fund abolished, EMA scrapped and destructive higher education cuts.

With all this in mind, it’s more important than ever that young people play a big role in the 2015 election. As Labour puts together the 2015 manifesto in the coming months, it is crucial that […]

    In focus: Better Politics Policy Commission

    By Johanna Baxter and Sadiq Khan MP When the Tory-led Government came to power in 2010, they promised a fresh start and a different kind of politics. But instead of opening up politics, they have closed it down. Instead of reaching out, they have appealed only to narrow sectional interests. And whenever they’ve been given an opportunity to rebuild trust and restore faith in our democracy, they’ve taken the side of the powerful, rather than the people. The British people […]

    By Jon Cruddas

    Today is the start of a process that will result in the manifesto the next Labour government will implement in office. The launch of the 8 National Policy Forum Final Year Documents – the framework for discussion at an NPF meeting in July and then for a vote at conference – are the result of massive input from the party and communities right across the country.
