Pledge 1: FULL EMPLOYMENT: We will create a million good quality jobs across our regions and nations, and guarantee a decent job for all.

We will invest in the high speed broadband, energy, transport and homes that our country needs and allow good businesses to thrive, and support a new generation of co-operative enterprises.
