THIS WEEK’S POLL

Diary

Ed Miliband has set out six of the key economic Bills that would appear in a Labour Queen’s Speech next week: a One Nation programme with new ideas to begin turning Britain’s economy around. 


Setting out the key economic Bills in Labour’s Alternative Queen’s speech, he says  Britain needs new ideas, a recognition that the real wealth creators are all the people who put in the hours and do the shifts - not just a few at the top – and a relentless focus on our economy


A Jobs Bill to put in place a Compulsory Jobs Guarantee

Finance Bill that would kick-start our economy and help make work pay with a 10p rate of tax

A Consumers Bill to tackle rip-off energy bills and train fares

A Banking Bill that backs British business with a real British Investment Bank and new regional banks

A Housing Bill that would take action against rogue landlords and extortionate fees in the private rented sector

An Immigration Bill with economic measures that put an end to workers having their wages undercut illegally by employers exploiting migrant labour


This Tory-led Government has now had three years in office in which it has shown it is out of touch with the British people, run out of ideas on how to turn our country around, and carried on regardless with a failed economic plan which offers only more of the same.

MUMS NOT MILLIONAIRES

With International Women’s Day  just gone and Mothers’ Day this Sunday, Labour's is calling on David Cameron to put mums before millionaires by reversing his millionaire’s tax cut and the real term cuts to maternity pay.
