But it was at the heart of 30 planned new laws in today's Queen's Speech, as the Conservatives looked to entrench an apparent shift in political allegiances.

The government's programme includes: a lifetime skills guarantee offering education to help adults improve their skills, an attempt to make it less attractive for illegal asylum seekers to come to the United Kingdom, reform of the planning process to make building homes easier, and making public transport outside London more connected across the bus and train network.
