Miliband’s ‘new bargain for Britain’
Mr Miliband will use his conference speech to call for a “new bargain” for Britain based on a different set of values and will call for radical changes in the way businesses are rewarded, pitching companies which look after staff and invest in the future against “asset strippers” who add little value.
He will also promise a “something for something” deal for people on benefits, with councils ordered to prioritise people who are working and good neighbours when allocating homes.
