Christian Choice Launch Manifesto

April 6, 2008 - Staff

The Christian Choice candidate for Mayor of London Alan Craig has vowed to improve the Quality of life for Londoners by putting “families first and giving unqualified backing to marriage”.

The pledge came as the The Christian Choice campaign launched their manifesto last Friday. The manifesto includes a promise to promote and support marriage with the payment of a £1,000 grant to every married couple in London.

The campaign says it would also build 50,000 affordable homes over the next three years with a commitment that at least 40% of these are 4 bedrooms or more.

Mr Craig said “London is a high-crime society with a complacent Civic Hall. Ken, Boris and Paddick know the studies linking family breakdown and crime, but propose nothing to strengthen the family based on marriage. The Christian Choice will change this.

“Our priority is to keep families together – so youngsters have fathers; mothers are empowered to choose to raise their children at home and where poverty is kept at bay by rewarding work fairly. “
