What socialist government was this?
I'm only 48, so it might have been before I was born, & not covered in the history I studied.
All costed, and if you look at it, a lot of the revenue raising streams are in the policies (stop funding the rail networks for France, Holland, Germany etc, reverse the monies going out of the NHS into private (often offshore accounts), reverse corporation tax cuts, ban firms abusing tax loopholes from tendering for government contracts (G4s, Serco, ATOS, Virgin,etc etc), building 100,000 council house (reduce unemployment in the building and supply trades, cut the cost of HB, youth training schemes to give hope to our next generation and reduce mental health problems).
The policies Labour have are good or great for the vast majority of the electorate, but, as the established elite would suffer, you won't hear this in the MSM, which is why I will be interested to see how many of the 300,000+ new members of the Labour party are out on the streets and knocking doors to get the message out there.
IF they can turn this election into a "state of the nation" debate rather than solely on Brexit (of which we can't be told the plans as it would weaken the bargaining position with the EU), then it might not be the tory landslide many predict.
