‘We will not raise the basic or top rates of income tax . . .’

‘We will maintain our inflation target at two percent.’

‘Violent behaviour, including the use of knives will not be tolerated.’

"comprehensive out-of-hours [GP] services . . "

Just a few more, I could go on but any one with two brain cells to rub together will realise that commitment during an election is often abandoned. Indeed many people vilify Donald for continuing to try to fulfill his election promises, the issues on which he was elected.
