Labour Party: Don’t Let Them Go Back To Business As Usual – Ed Miliband

Labour today releases a document detailing the divisive policies which the Tories and Lib Dems are pursuing without a mandate:

No mandate for NHS reorganisation
No mandate for police cuts
No mandate for VAT rise
No mandate for their squeeze on middle-income families
No mandate for abolishing EMAs and Future Jobs Fund or trebling tuition fees

Last year the Tories fell short of a majority in the General Election, unable to command the support of the British people for their right-wing agenda.

Since then, rather than proposing reform that commands consensus, David Cameron's Tory-led Government has attempted to force through right-wing policies for which they have no mandate.

Ed Miliband MP, Leader of the Labour Party, said:

“There is an alternative to letting Nick Clegg and David Cameron return to business as usual pursuing policies which haven’t been thought through and for which people did not vote. 

"The way to do that is by voting for a change in direction for the country.

"I urge people who did not vote for these policies or do not want them now to use their vote on Thursday to show David Cameron and Nick Clegg what they think of being ignored over the past 12 months.

"I urge people to make it more than a moment of difficulty for David Cameron and Nick Clegg. 

"I urge people to deliver a verdict on the broken promises - both Conservative and Liberal Democrat – by voting Labour.

"I ask people to help us make that Labour voice as strong as possible - because that will be the best way to make these Tories and their Liberal Democrats allies listen.”
