They can be as wild and fanciful as you want.
Employees:
* Make the Living Wage compulsory for businesses employing 50 or more employees.
* Absolute ban on zero hour contracts, with it being compulsory for a business to offer workers the opportunity to 'opt-in' to a flexi-time scheme.
* Complete overhaul of the TULRA (1992), to remove restrictions on balloting, industrial action, secondary action, closed shops, what forms a trade dispute, and the threshold to apply for statutory recognition.
Welfare:
* Axe the bedroom tax.
* Remove JCP sanction regimes and bring work schemes back in house.
* Scrap work capability assessments.
Public Services:
* Rail and Bus Operations to be nationalised, and to be ran as public services.
* Profit from both operations put back into the system to ensure that less profitable and rural routes are properly served.
* Bring every inch of the NHS back into the public sector.
Tax:
* Reduce VAT to 15% from day one.
* Close all tax loopholes, criminalise tax avoidance, and invest heavily in the HMRC to give them all the tools they need to do their job.
Business:
* Restrict off shoring to 5% of a business
* Prevent any public sector work ever being delivered from off shore locations
* Prevent UK businesses from operating from tax havens
