“The failed policies of the politicians and the bankers caused the financial crisis. Spending cuts are driving us into poverty. An economic alternative is essential to protect ordinary people, and to save the NHS and welfare state.
The government should:
- 1) Stop cuts and halt privatisation;
- 2) Tax the millionaires and big business;
- 3) Drop the debt, and put the banks under democratic control;
- 4) Invest in jobs, homes, public services and the environment.”
