Well no anything they promise before getting into power doesn't become a lie until they do get in and fail to deliver, because the premise of anthing said is "if/when we get into power we will..."

Like for example...

LT, I promise that if I ever win the lottery, I will paypal you £10,000.


Now realistically if I did win the lottery you'd be lucky if I'd lend you a tenner, but the above doesn't become a LIE until I win it and refuse to give you the £10,000.

And I don't even play the lottery so the likelihood of any of it happening is basically zero.

Which is really carte blanche to make as many promises as desired without having to worry about those promises becoming lies.
