REASON 31<br />
A FULLY COSTED MANIFESTO<br />
TO BENEFIT ORDINARY<br />
Today Jeremy Corbyn forgot a number. Later on he apologised and<br />
PEOPLE<br />
explained the detail of the cost he had forgotten. The interviewer asking the<br />
question did of course have the ready prepared question in front of her and<br />
also had access <strong>to</strong> the figure - so the only reason <strong>to</strong> ask was <strong>to</strong> trip up the<br />
<strong>Labour</strong> leader.<br />
The significant point is that the <strong>Labour</strong> manifes<strong>to</strong> is a substantial document<br />
with lots of policies and there is also a well prepared supplementary<br />
document giving costs and funding proposals.<br />
I know that some supporters of other parties will disagree with the figures<br />
and try <strong>to</strong> pick holes in them, they'll say they are unworkable etc. But at least<br />
<strong>Labour</strong> have costings and funding proposals and are able <strong>to</strong> defend them.<br />
Plus of course the costs involved are for the benefit of the people of our<br />
country.<br />
But what about the conservative's position?<br />
The conservative manifes<strong>to</strong> is actually quite thin on policy and costings are<br />
pretty much invisible. There are no costings for Theresa May and her<br />
ministers <strong>to</strong> remember because they haven't work out any costs yet (or if<br />
they have they are far <strong>to</strong> scared <strong>to</strong> share them with mere voters).<br />
We don't need more austerity from a party that does not understand value<br />
and won't tell us about the costs of there rather vague manifes<strong>to</strong>.<br />
VOTE LABOUR BECAUSE WE NEED A GOVERNMENT WITH<br />
A PLAN AND WE DESERVE TO BE TOLD WHAT IT WILL<br />
COST AND HOW IT WILL BE FUNDED
