Weblinks for AS Government and Politics Party Policies and ideas

Jim Riley

30th October 2012

Continuing with the weblinks before the AS Edexcel exam in January, I thought I'd put up some weblinks for party policies and ideas for AS Politics. Of all the topics, I think this is the one that is trickiest to keep up with - because policies are constantly evolving and changing (the Coalitions views on Trident being a case in point at the moment). If anyone has any extra links, please feel free to post them here.
