What would be the main policies or changes you would like to see? I think a lot of the time some people like to campaign against things and feel like a rebel pushing against the system and the status quo, I thought this about Jeremy Corbyn and his followers especially at the point when he had a cult like student following
I speak only for myself, a small fraction of things I would like are:
- A PM that is a decent, respectable human being, not one that wants to cater to a base of xenophobes and racists and legitimises the opinions of those people. Also, somebody that has a philosophy and believes in it as opposed to Boris who does and says whatever he thinks will benefit him personally.
- A government that doesn't victimise the vulnerable people in our society, i.e. the disabled, the homeless, the poor. One that at least tries to treat all people with dignity and respect.
- A government that will redress the Landlord culture in this country and prevent the wealthy hoovering up properties and freeholds for their own personal gain at the expense of others.
- A government that doesn't sell off pieces of our health service in secret, and one that doesn't deliberately underfund the NHS. The same for the police and other publicly funded services.
- A government that does not trade or negotiate with rogue nations.
