Home / Chapter 1 Economy / Labour
The Conservatives are the party
The Conservatives are the party of high interest rates, high inflation,
mass unemployment and house repossessions.Their taxand-
spend promises do not add up; and they would cut £35
billion from public investment.With new Labour, Britain can
seize the opportunities of globalisation, creating jobs and prosperity
for people up and down the country.We can only do so if
we build a clear sense of shared national economic purpose, not
just around economic stability but also investment in infrastructure,
skills, science and enterprise.The choice is to go forward to
economic stability, rising prosperity and wider opportunities
with new Labour. Or go back to the bad old days of Tory cuts,
insecurity and instability.
