Mr Miliband made it clear that he would not commit to put any specific policies in its manifesto at this stage.
Quote:
Asked on the Daily Politics whether it was a firm manifesto commitment, Mr Balls said they could not write their manifesto now, but the changes were something "we want to do... intend to do... plan to do" if the party gets into power after the next election.
so that's a yes and a no


Quote:
He said the detail "had to be got right" but he would be willing to talk to the Lib Dems who he suggested were "still keen" on the idea
do i smell another coalition in the offing? or just nicking each others ideas

If it was ongoing wouldn't that just be a raise in the council tax ?
