Sharing this mainly because it pointed me towards FullFact’s Government Tracker, which looks handy. According to them, only one pledge has not been kept, on the National Wealth Fund:

“Capitalised with £7.3 billion over the course of the next Parliament, the National Wealth Fund will have a remit to support Labour’s growth and clean energy missions”

And three others are ‘Off track’, while six are ‘Unclear or disputed’.

Those that have been achieved include:

delivering an extra two million NHS operations, scans and appointments, recognising a Palestinian state, introducing a Football Governance Bill, ending the use of offshore trusts to avoid inheritance tax and abolishing non-dom status.

    Agreed. When I read the manifesto I came away with the impression that they’d identified a number of real issues, but their proposed solutions wouldn’t work / be enough.
