2) "Increase Food Production for the Purpose of Full Employment. Agriculture must be expanded so that Britain produces all her own food supplies, with the exception of wheat. . . .

3) "Full Support Must Be Given to Small and Independent Enterprise. . .

4) "There Should Be No Monopolies, No Combines, No Cartels. . .

5) "No Regimentation, Either from the Right or from the Left. . . .

6) "Equality of Opportunity. This involves education for all, and the abolition of the public [i.e., private] schools. . . ."
