Clear Plan. Bold Action. Secure Future. was a political manifesto published in 2024 by the Conservative Party under the leadership of Rishi Sunak, ahead of their unsuccessful campaign in the 2024 general election.[1][2]

Overview

[edit]

The manifesto addressed the economy, taxes, welfare, expanding free childcare, education, healthcare, environment, energy, transport, community, culture, creative sector, sport, and crime.[3][4] It pledged to lower taxes, increase education and NHS spending, deliver 92,000 more nurses and 28,000 more doctors, introduce a new model of National Service, and to treble Britain's offshore wind capacity and support solar energy.

The manifesto included a pledge to abolish Stamp Duty on homes worth up to £425,000 for first time buyers and expand the Help to Buy scheme.[5] The Conservatives also pledged a recruitment of 8,000 new police officers and a rollout of facial recognition technology.[6] Much of what has been proposed was already incorporated in the March 2024 budget.[7][8][9]

  • Another 2p off National Insurance. Their long-term plan is to abolish it altogether, when it is economically responsible to do so.
  • Protection for pensioners with Triple Lock Plus – so the State Pension is never taxed.
  • 30 hours of free childcare a week, saving eligible families £6,900 a year.
  • A bold new model of National Service to give young people the skills and opportunities they need to succeed.
  • 100,000 high-quality apprenticeships – by curbing lower-quality university degrees.
  • The Advanced British Standard to enhance technical learning as well as academic skills.
  • A boost to defence spending to 2.5% of GDP by 2030 – to secure British interests.
  • A legal cap on migration which will fall every year.
  • Stopping the boats by removing illegal migrants to Rwanda.
  • 92,000 extra nurses and 28,000 extra doctors – while driving up NHS productivity.
  • 8,000 more full time police officers so every police ward has a new officer.
  • 1.6 million more good homes while protecting the countryside.
