What do you want out of the new government?

[chillymorns]

Whoever they are.

I want -

A better management and investment in key areas of the NHS

Cheaper utilities

More money for disabled people and their families

More tax on those earning over a certain %, so maybe those on £100k plus being taxed a bit further

Cheaper railways being introduced

Better investment in local facilities

Please share yours I voted Labour last time and will do so again. The Tories just need to be gone, and I'm not convinced those with any sense will say otherwise

I understand a lot of the issues from the NHS are actually down to management and being poorly run. Wasted resources.

I'd like to see some change in the structure of this, without actually privatising it as I think someone on little cash will inevitably suffer

For them to know what a woman is, and make safe spaces mandatory.

More of the NHS is privatised than people think.

Yes to this

Sadly, I don't think the Tories have done women any favours so I won't be voting for that alone

Although I have been worried that Labour will make this even more of an issue and make it worse. But financial constraints just seem more pressing for the vast majority, sadly

I'll take normal politics and a serious approach.

It's been a very turbulent parliament, tiring and unsettling.

Very true

Honesty, integrity and to put the country before their party.

I don't think the second one will happen with any of the choices we have available

An admission that long and repeated lockdowns caused much more harm than good, especially to children, and how they intend to put this right; and a grovelling apology for supporting lockdowns. (Because they all did: labour’s only criticism of lockdown was that it ever ended.) Also that the campaign of fear was a very bad move.

And yes, I think this is important, and it’s not a case of “it’s done now”. It set an absolutely monstrous precedent, and there is a very real danger of such a thing being repeated, with no shame at all, unless the massive damage is TALKED ABOUT. They will try to bury it and forget it; we must not let this happen.

A puppy.

oh god no
i will tune out if they start whittling on about this

latter won’t happen under starmer

last general election he said Corbyn would make a great PM . why? he wanted labour in and sod what was for the best for the country

he now admits that he never thought they’d win anyway

Closer trade links with the EU.
Taking up some of the sensible offers the EU made that the Tories rejected (such as those around music and the arts and visas - this will boost the UK creative sector)
Deal once and for all with the exploitative leasehold rules
Implement ban on section 21 evictions that the Tories chickened out of
Implement the law on buffer zones that the Tories chickened out of
Fully decriminalise abortion, making it a health issue only

Other than that - I want boring, steady, tedious politics that gradually sweeps away the literal and metaphorical piles of shit the Tories have left behind.

•Investment in all public services.
•A Long term strategy for the NHS with front line staff included in drawing up the strategy.
• Ditto above for education.
•A real Crackdown on behaviour of the water companies& rail companies.
•

Spend our taxes properly so ymthey can be lowered but st very least not increased, too much mismanagement and bureaucracy

A debate on assisted dying well no infsct I want one in place

No more dumping sewage into sea and rivers

No more penalising drivers by introducing pay per mile or whatever they dream up next

And know what a woman is please

This. This has to be the defining point of the election. And under Labour, women and children simply will not be safe.

the defining point?

Bloody. hell. no

I want them to be able to tell us what a woman is, stop men being allowed in women's spaces and sport etc.

To sort out the NHS as it's not just the long waiting lists but the sheer waste is criminal... I work alongside NHS colleagues and have friends working within and what I'm hearing makes me so angry.

Sort out social care funding.

Sort out education.

Sort out the dire housing situation.

Stop the boats but not with threats of Rwanda - spend the money on staff to process asylum claims and to stop people putting themselves at risk in a boat.

Sort out the benefit system. Starting with no longer topping up wages of people who chose to work less than full time. Means test the winter fuel payments etc

Also- fantasy land time- make everyone go vegan for their health AND the planet (one lives in hope!) 🤷🏻‍♀️

For them to know what a woman is, and make safe spaces mandatory.

Yes, and to continue the changes being made after the Cass report wrt puberty blockers and dealing with gender issues in children.

To begin to sort out the crisis in schools, by actually listening to people working in them, and by understanding that trying to persuade or bribe people into training as teachers does not work. The job itself needs to change. Put schools back into local authority control, get rid of MATs, ditch league tables and Ofsted.

Unfortunately, as much as I hate the Tories, I don't believe Labour will improve things very much. I'd genuinely love to be proved wrong.

I don't think defining what a woman is, is a realistic main attraction sadly

A fairer society for all.
Go after the benefits fraudsters but treat claimants with respect.
Go after tax evaders
Off shore tax avoidance.

Enforce sex=biological sex and protect single sex spaces above all.
Deliver on Cass report.
Better support for child mental health service.
Improve NHS.

Competence.

Most things government do should not be political at all. Getting a passport, a doctor's appointment, roads in adequate condition, clean rivers, for example.

Individual tax does not need to be higher. Corporation tax does, and the loopholes that permit avoidance and evasion need to be addressed and policed.

Funnel that back into health, social care and education
