And here's a link to post-war manifestos  (the word is from the Italian, if that helps the notional plural question!) --

Try the 1945 Labour one - it won't take long to read, must be the most effective ever in terms of change per word. Handkerchiefs at the ready, for some.....

Labour - don't bust a gut getting rich.

Tories - don't get old or sick (especially not both at the same time!).

Libdems - stay in Europe.

Funnily enough most people don't work to 'get rich', and 'getting rich' is outside the scope of most people who bust a gut everyday working sometimes two or three jobs.

Most rich people didn't do any  gut busting.

According to Collins dictionary it can be manifestos or manifestoes

Absolutely, but even the wealthy have their problems, just money ain't one.

The Lib Dems are the voice for Europe. Labour fell into the Tories trap by activating Article 50, no opposition there!

Alphabetically in order, not in order of priority for Europe
