I know I'm allegedly radical (among other labels some have used from time to time) but surely we could use common sense & if need be, raise taxation - particularly for those who have most, though not to a punitive level & do away with stuff such as private healthcare brought to us courtesy of Neo Liberalism & just pay for what's needed at least as far as possible, without leeches getting fat from providing childcare, health etc etc.
Some of the Nordic countries have high taxes which cover most stuff like that & they also have the world's happiest people. Not that we have the same resources they do but we could emulate them as far as is possible.
Large doses of common sense needed in all our political parties, particularly when in govt. Or opposition.
I think we need a law which prevents any politician going within 4 feet of any child not actually their own.....
You have to wonder about their parents too.

in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
