Stop the sell-off of council homes - retain and extend publicly-owned housing. "Arms length housing companies" are New Labour’s latest ruse to persuade tenants to leave the public sector - they mean higher rents and less security of tenure. Whilst there is an urgent need for improvements, local authority provision is still the best way to ensure decent housing for all and decent conditions for workers involved in housing maintenance. 2, record 2, English, - decent%20condition

Peace is neither an unattainable ideal nor an abstract concept. It is very tangible : it is above all a right.... It is the right to security without inequality, to respect for such fund fundamental values as human rights; it is the right to live free of threats, the right to satisfy one's hunger, to work, to live in decent conditions, and above all to live in dignity. All that is peace. 3, record 2, English, - decent%20condition
