I'd like to make manifestos's contractually binding. They can put whatever they want in it, and not deliver any of it if elected. The Tories have no intention of delivering any of these unfunded giveaways. I suspect they know there's no way they can get a majority, so on the off chance they are part a a coalition, they can say the other party won't let them deliver the manifesto goodies. That's what they did with their inheritance tax pledge last time. The promises/lies are getting increasingly desperate.
