Just the fact that the 2015 Tory manifesto seems to be so similar to the 2010 one is heartening as it seems to illustrate how little of what they wanted then they've done in the last five years. I don't think any party can be trusted to stick to what they say in their manifesto, after the election.

But I think it's worth pointing out that their manifesto was for a Lib Dem government, not one where they were very much junior to the Tories. Even then, the Lib Dems seem to have delivered more of their namifesto than was expected for the amount of power they have, and at least as importantly, blocked the Tories from doing some of the more egregiously heartless things they'd like to.
