Ed Miliband is confident he's "winning the fight for Net Zero". His assurance is misplaced, says Ben Pile. It's based on a growth in 'green jobs', but they come at the cost of entire sectors in other parts?of?the?economy.

Abortion is a complex moral issue. But when vaccines and medicines are developed from research using aborted foetuses, we should at least be told, says Dr David Bell. Conscience must be respected.

SDLP Youth - SDLP Launch 2007 Manifesto

category national | miscellaneous | press release author Tuesday February 27, 2007 14:37author by Socialist - SDLP Youth Report this post to the editors

The SDLP launched their 2007 manifesto on Monday morning at The Edge in Belfast.

SDLP 2007 Party Manifesto is now online at:
http://www.sdlp.ie/docs/SDLP_Manifesto_2007.pdf

SDLP Youth Colleges Officer Peter Armstrong attended the launch. He said:
”The SDLP manifesto sets an agenda for achieving a better Ireland for our young people. It represents more employment and enterprise, affordable housing, and improving public transport and infrastructure. The SDLP can provide better government – delivering on healthcare, childcare and equality.”

“The SDLP manifesto contains many reasons why young people need to get out and vote this March 7th. A vote for the SDLP is a vote to end the political deadlock of SF/DUP politics; politics that will never agree and can never work together.

“An SDLP agenda includes opposing water charges – a double tax that we already pay for in our rates. Opposing the increase in regional rates, stopping water privatisation and the police tax that direct mis-rule ministers have lined up.

“We want to see increased cross-border trading, better deals for our farmers, for the self-employed, for rural education, agus an Acht Ghaeilge atá cuimsitheach.”

“More police away from desk jobs and onto the streets, safer communities, a Bill of Rights and more provisions for community groups and youth clubs. It’s guaranteed – when the SDLP is strong, progress always gets made. Vote for the better future that we all deserve – and let the SDLP make change happen. I urge young voters to vote SDLP on Wednesday 7th March.”
