Contributing sentiments towards policy:
59% : Party presents 'fully costed plan to tackle the healthcare crisis from top to bottom', including guarantees on GPs and dentists and free-to-access social care The Liberal Democrats have become the first of the big parties to launch their election manifesto, with a pitch to voters based on boosting the NHS and social care.54% : Quizzed by reporters, Davey said that while rejoining the EU remained the party's goal "in the long term", this would only ever be done in stages, starting with moves to improve the existing trade deal with Europe, and to push for easier freedom of movement for young people.
54% : Davey set out plans to raise £7.2bn from tackling tax avoidance, but would first invest £1bn in HMRC to improve its efficiency.
51% : This is a manifesto to save the NHS," Davey told an audience of journalists and Lib Dem candidates and staffers. As well as a series of green pledges, including an urgent programme of home insulation and retrofitting, and policies on the cost of living, such as a pledge on free school meals, the manifesto also takes in traditional Lib Dem areas such as political reform and Europe.
47% : Their plan to overhaul capital gains tax to raise £5.2bn for the NHS by 2028-29 makes them the first party to announce a big tax change as part of their spending plans.
43% : On Brexit, while the Lib Dems primary pledge in the 2019 election was to annul the departure from the EU without a second referendum, the 2024 manifesto does not mention the issue until more than 100 pages in.
