Labour's Broken Promises

Borrowed from a newsletter that came through my front door

Education Bill - watered down after massive Labour rebellion

Health Bill - amended after Cabinet in-fighting

Racial and Religeous Hatred Bill - incitement to religeous hatred plans scrapped

Welfare Reform Bill - delayed due to Cabinett in-fighting

Mental Health Bill - scrapped entirely

ID Cards - amended and delayed after massive opposition

Management of Offenders Bill - scrapped after critics slammed proposals

Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill - proposals to 'abolish Parliament' defeated

The Violent Crime Reduction Bill - amended after Conservative pressure

European Union Bill - sidelined amid confusion

The Equality Bill - amended despite Labour's opposition

Corporate Manslaughter Bill - delayed after consultation

Law Reform Bill - amended after Conservative pressure

Time and space do not permit me to add any more at this stage
