Comparing party manifestos side-by-side
Apr. 21st, 2010 05:35 pmWhat I found most useful was the BBC page listing the major and minor parties manifestos side-by-side in order to see what they actually say, both in terms of what they say, and on which topics they have introduced any specifics and which just have general ideologies.
I don't know how accurate it is, but it is at least a small start to studying some of the issues, so long as I can't read a manifesto and hold it all in my head at once.
For instance, Labour, Conservative, and Lib Dem compared on the economy.
Key priorities of UKIP, BNP and Green
It's interesting to see where the small parties list ideologies, and where I agree and disagree, for instance UKIP on environment is "yay nature" but "disbelieve climate change" etc. But probably more useful for skimming the major parties and looking for any details.
