Reminds me of George Bush's "putting food on your family" quote.

Mind you Labour's website has talked of their "key elcetion pledges" for over a month now so they're not alone in being unable to proof read their own publicity

You have to be very careful when you pot about someone else's grammar.

It's is only used as a substitute for it is. Other it's its.

I do know, thanks. That's iPhone auto-correct for you. But then, my comment wasn't featured as part of a political party's publicity campaign.

Indeed, there's a difference between a post on an internet forum and an official communication from a political party.

I was aware that the sentence isn’t strictly grammatically correct, but that was the way that Aaron wrote his piece. We thought it was right to leave it unaltered.

As a party we are actively against putting words into people’s mouths but we might have considered correcting it if we thought it wasn’t clear what Aaron meant. It’s phrased in a quirkily idiosyncratic way that allows Aarons voice to come through,

So we thought it was right to leave it unaltered and it is as he wrote it.

That’s not to say there aren’t other errors in our material…

Grammatical errors are a minor issue far more important is the error of completely reneging or not carrying out election pledges IMHO.  

Of course, but that might depend if one gets elected according to the rules.

A missing apostrophe is par for the course - at least they didn't use 'are' instead of 'is'.
