This is the votes by vote definition of Public Whip policy #193: "The Fourth Way". You may want to read an introduction to policies, or read more about Public Whip.

Someone who believes that In a bid to promote common sense and social justice, this MP commits to pursuing greater public spending, the reduction of red-tape and a more 'friendly' society.

Higher education needs to be re-examined. Although tuition fees are not the solution, a middle ground needs to be found, and I will support bills that attempt to redress this problem.

Without Europe, Britain would ne nothing. I pledge to further integrate us into Europe so that we lead from the front and not follow the French/German lead.

In breif, this MP commits himself to a few simple policies:
1. Higher public spending
2. Leading Europe, not lagging
3. Increased taxes, but the removal of stealth tax
4. Promotes social justice within the capitalist system
5. Work with international agencies to help Iraq
6. Listen to the constituents, and being readily available
would have voted like this...
