A word beyond 'stating the obvious'

Is there a word which describes a statement which is completely redundant, as its opposite would clearly be ridiculous?

For example

Our Party aims to reduce levels of crime.

I've considered: Tautology, truism, etc., but they don't really fit.

a platitude TFD

• a trite, dull, or obvious remark or statement; commonplace; a bromide
• staleness or insipidity of thought or language; triteness

As in:

Our Party aims to reduce levels of crime.

is platitudinous, as they can't think of anything original to say. A close synonym would be to call it a bromide (a common saying or proverb that is obvious and not that helpful).
