Simon Kirby Outlines Some Conservative Policies

Abolishing stamp duty for nine out of ten first-time buyers and increasing threshold for inheritance tax to £1m;

Ending Labour’s early prisoner release scheme, and scrapping ID cards and using some of the funds to build more prison places;

Cutting police paperwork so that officers can spend more time out on patrol;

Scrapping tests for seven year olds, making sure that every child who is capable of doing so can read, and imposing discipline in the classroom;

Offering a referendum on the EU Treaty - the European Constitution in all but name;

Introducing a new system of decentralised energy production, helping to improve energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gases we produce;

Shifting the burden of tax away from families and onto pollution;

Increase spending on the NHS - and making sure that the money is better spent by increasing out-of-hours duty services, protecting Hospitals and putting patients first.
