    Why so coy @uklabour? Why not throw in free SkyTV? Free iphones? Netflix and x-boxes all round? The more fantastical their ‘promises’, the less credible they become.https://twitter.com/bbclaurak/status/1195099753060671488 …

    Boldest promise yet from Labour in this campaign - free broadband for all over next ten years by part nationalizing BT and tax on tech giants - big price tag - 20bn and another big nationalization

        Oh and £20bn could provide over 150,000 homes for the homeless. But mass nationalisation for ideological reasons is apparently a higher priority...
