Today we find out that the leader of the UK opposition party, does not want the UK to re-apply for membership of the EU and that it is a dead issue? Of, course it is, and does anyone think seriously think that the EU would want the UK back?
Given that the EU is no longer a discussion point, I would like to know what the Labour party is going to do about poor housing, the badly funded NHS, the badly funded school system and international trade, as just for starters. Most of all I want to know what the Labour party is going to do about the billions of pounds of debt that has been run up because the epidemic was badly managed. I want to know what the Labour party has got to say to the millions of young people who will be saddled with the consequences of this debt.
I want to know what the Conservative and Liberal Parties have in mind for the same issues. The electorate must be provided with a realistic analysis about the problems that the country faces, and a series of realistic options and recommendations to improve the nation's prospects, given that we are in the middle of a serious health and economic crisis.
Unfortunately, I don't think anything concrete will be forthcoming. We need evidence based decision and policy making, and not just broken promises. Perhaps, it is time for the Greens to be given a chance. We all have a vote let's consider the alternative.
