But like all such programmes for government - and every political manifesto since the dawn of time - the document is high on idealism and low on realism. Sure there's something for everyone (I rather like their idea for electoral reform, so long as it means fewer politicians). But I feel like we've been promised an organic chicken in every pot - as Herbert Hoover might have said - though sadly The Great Depression meant that he never did get to deliver on his promises.
And I suspect that much the same fate awaits this particular programme.
