Clean energy

One of Labour’s biggest commitments so far is to spend £28bn by the end of the parliament on green jobs and industry. While the pledge has been slightly scaled back, the headline figure remains – though there are many blanks about what the money will be spent on.

Highest G7 growth

An economic pledge that goes much beyond the weaker promises made by Rishi Sunak, it includes avoiding recession and ensuring that debt is falling. However, even with a series of policies designed to revive the economy, external factors could derail it. More detail is expected on the growth agenda.

Future of the NHS

While the headline aim is vague, Starmer has been more specific recently about what he hopes to achieve with the NHS – including ambulances arriving within seven minutes for cardiac arrest, meeting four-hour A&E waiting targets and high GP satisfaction ratings. Huge questions remain over funding levels.

Opportunity for all

Starmer’s most recent speech focused on this mission, which encompasses education. The aim is to increase good development at the end of reception and increase numbers of school-leavers going into work, study or apprenticeships. It will abolish private school tax breaks to pay for teachers and end non-dom status to fund primary breakfast clubs.

Safer streets

Labour has said it wants to halve knife crime, halve violence against women and girls, increase the rate of solved crimes and restore confidence in the police. They are clear aims, but very little is known about the costs involved or the paths to achieving them.
