Don - Delivering on promises
Don Foster stands up for Bath in parliament
During the General Election Don made four key pledges. In government the Liberal Democrats are delivering on these pledges.
1) Fair taxes that put money back in your pocket
The government has raised the personal allowance by 1,000 to 7,475 with a commitment by the coalition to raise it to 10,000 pounds a year.
2) A Fair chance for every child
The government has implemented a Pupil Premium. This is an additional 2.5 billion pounds to encourage schools to take on poorer pupils.
3) Create Jobs by making Britain Greener
The government has announced a Green Deal which will provide an extra 3.5 million homes with insulation and will provide an extra 75,000 jobs. We have invested 850 million pounds into the renewable heat initiative to provide long term support for renewable heat technologies, from household solar thermal panels to industrial wood pellet boilers.
4) A Fair deal for you from politicians
The government has announced a referendum on election reform for May 2011 giving the electorate the chance to choose which voting system they want.
