Jeremy Corbyn’s policy blitz supported by majority of British public, poll says
‘Several of Jeremy Corbyn’s policies for a future Labour government have the support of the majority of the British public, according to a new poll analysing past pledges and a recent policy blitz by the left-wing leader.
Alongside members of his shadow Cabinet the Labour leader has used the two-week parliamentary recess to announce a raft of policies, which are expected to feature in the party’s general election manifesto. They include free school meals for primary school children, forcing big businesses to publish their tax returns, and a £10-an-hour minimum wage.
According to a poll by ComRes for The Independent, some of the policies have considerable support among the public, notably the raising of the minimum wage and of the top rate of tax to 50p from 45p – 71 per cent and 62 per cent of respondents agreed with the policies respectively.’
