This study by the editors of "Soundings" begins to set out an agenda for politics under what is hoped will be at least ten years of new Labour government. The first days of the new government have seen the government make good on the voters' insistence on change. But changes taking many years will need a fund of ideas and rigorous thinking. Labour's manifesto leaves space open for this, and this book offers a contribution towards it. Featuring political contributors drawn from the pool of "Soundings" writers, it opens up a comprehensive dialogue with Tony Blair. The book covers a range of themes, from equality, the economy, transport, food, law and order, foreign policy, to reflections on good and bad government.
