Labour Landslides And Socialist Values

EDM number 1358 in 1994-95, proposed by Alan Simpson on 05/07/1995.

That this House, with respect and gratitude, celebrates the 5th of July 1995 as the 50th anniversary of the landslide victory of the post-war Labour Government; remembers that Labour secured its parliamentary majority of 146 on the basis of a programme to deliver full employment, universal entitlements to health, pensions and education, the nationalisation of public utilities and a massive programme of public sector house building; and affirms its belief that such socialist policies are as relevant to the ending of today's war against the poor as they were to the war against fascism in 1945.

This motion has been signed by a total of 31 MPs.
