Social Change-Social Mobility-Social Reform

I believe and want Labour to win the next election. I'm not claiming it's going to be easy but I believe it's possible. To do this Labour need to develop policies that will do two things. Firstly go back to their socialist roots of standing up for the working man, the welfare state and equality. This would begin the fight back against the BNP and win back it's traditional heart land. Secondly developing and involving the New Labour ideologies of centre-left politics focusing on free markets, democracy and human rights. This would win over middle-england, go with the flow of gobal politics and I believe this would be right for the country. Labour won the 1997 election on appealing to middle-england, they need to do this once again.

The only way of combining these two is a manifesto of socially revolutionary policies. This would involve three main areas of policy Social Change, Social Mobility and Social Reform. With the policies I am going to set out I believe the Labour Party can win the next general election, bring this country out of the economic downturn and bring a social revolution to our streets.

Social Change - this would involve policies that would bring back integrity, honesty and respect to society. This would include the reforms to MP's expenses, the development of the human rights act and how it's put into place in society and honoring man and woman of integrity, honesty and respecting in the community bringing them into the discussion making in government.

Social Mobility - this would include carry on with and reforming the welfare state, improving people's quality of life through education, welfare and social justice and bringing people of out poverty. It would also include looking to other nations and seeing how we can help them in these issues and develop there public services, democracy and help their people out of poverty.

Social Reform - this would include continuing of public sector reforms, banking reforms and constitutional reforms. Through all these and more bringing change to society as a whole. I think through these reforms I have mentioned and others that it would bring public trust back to these institutions and increase the effectively of government. I believe developing a written constitution would be useful in doing this.
