The latest YouGov poll has Labour and the Conservatives neck and neck on 34 per cent, with UKIP on 12 per cent followed by the Lib Dems on 8 per cent and the Greens on 6 per cent.
A hung parliament looks the most likely outcome in May; but there is still time for the polls to change considerably. With or without the support of one of the smaller parties, Labour could edge it.
And so we want to hear from you: what should the next Labour government prioritise in office? Reducing inequality? Improving the NHS? Building more homes? Nationalising the railways? The environment?

There is indeed that impression that you are confused, Leon. I believe others rather feel that you are a bit bonkers.

So you don’t read my post, Lord Blagger, as you go “JEWS R MAD” as usual. Over and over and over.

Oh yes, control who’s acceptable in a party. Can’t be left to democracy, after all.
…
Or we could have democratic solutions, like voting reform.

A wage cap, a message Britain is closed for business, is not the way to improve standards of living. Firstly, it won’t work (they’ll be paid abroad). Second, we’ll have less business done here. Third, it opens up a morass of new types of law.
No, just adjust the normal tax rates so that high earners have a higher marginal tax rate. Simple, effective. And introduce things which really will help people – building council houses and a Basic Income.
Oh, and as the NEF suggest, it’s often better not to renationalise but to place services at arms-length with non-profits and mutuals, which actually makes it harder for governments to tinker with them!
