Building 1.5 million homes over five years
Promoting economic growth and stability
Enhancing employment rights and banning exploitative practices
Increasing devolution and giving more powers to metro mayors
Bringing train operators into public ownership
Introducing bills for children's wellbeing, mental health, and equal pay
Carrying over previous government measures on renters' rights and tobacco regulation
Commitment to NATO and improving trade relations with the EU
Addressing historic scandals with a "duty of candour" for public servants
