1. Your family better off
Low inflation, and mortgages as low as possible, more people off benefit and into work, a rising Minimum Wage and more help for first time buyers
2. Your child achieving more
Modern schools for all, strong discipline, and a guaranteed place in training, sixth form or an apprenticeship.
3. Your children with the best start
More choice over parental leave for mums and dads, more childcare for under 5s, and after school care for over 5s.
4. Your family treated better and faster
No one waiting more than 18 weeks, guaranteed, for hospital treatment - with choice over where and when - in an NHS free at the point of need.
5. Your community safer
Local policing teams, cracking down on graffiti, gangs and drug dealers.
6. Your country's borders protected
ID cards and strict controls that work to combat asylum abuse and illegal immigration.
