【选举】工人党公布竞选宣言 要让选民选票“票有所值”
工人党在今日（28日）推出竞选宣言，喊出口号“让你票有所值”（Make Your Vote Count）。
工人党强调打破行动党在国会中的“超级多数”（supermajority）议席，呼吁国人，透过把有建设性、理性的替代政党送入国会，确保选民的选票真正有价值。
该党秘书长毕丹星也指出，工人党的政纲献议，也是根据该党咨询相关领域专家、阿裕尼、后港和各选区居民的回馈建议制定。
该党一些建议包括：反对把消费税调涨至九巴仙，避免家中老百姓负担；
国人最低薪资1千300元，好让低收入群体能应对基本需求；
修改现有造成年长者负担的政策，包括60岁以上乐龄病患健保储蓄可用在所有公共医疗机构的治疗开销；把公积金领入息合格年龄降至60岁；65岁以上年长者搭公交免费等。
推出冗员保险（Redundancy Insurance）计划，作为现有再培训和再就业配套的补充，为不幸被裁员工铺设社会安全网。
阿裕尼集选区候选人严燕松认为，冗员保险不仅能减轻被裁雇员的财务压力，也能在经济下行时起到稳定的作用。
工人党主席林瑞莲则认为，面对经济和全球、地缘性等因素的感染，没有任何政党能强大到能自己找到正确的应对方式。
