This week we’re focusing on what the political parties in the General Election 2017 stand for. You’ll be glad to hear that they have created easy read versions:
Liberal Party – has an easy read version, an audio version you can download in two parts and a Braille version you can download
Labour Party – has an easy read, Braille, large print and audio version all available on the same page
Green Party – has an easy read version, audio version to listen online. They have also divided up easy read versions to cover the environment, LBTIQA, women and youth and British Sign Language versions
Women’s Equality Party – has a downloadable easy read version
You may be wondering why we’ve not added ones for the Conservative Party and the UK Independence Party (UKIP). This is because none are yet available. Mencap is urging these parties to produce them on their website page General Election 2017 Easy Read Manifestos. They’ve also brought all the easy read ones together on the same page. We’ll update the post when ones become available.
Finally the BBC have a web page General Election 2017: Manifesto Guide on Where the Parties Stand that will guide you to what the parties think on particular issues.
