This is not MY campaign, it is Your campaign. I am an old man, a product of the past, and of an age where charity and service were taken for granted. This as a campaign for young people. People whose lives and ambitions are yet to come, and have the wish to live them in health and comfort. People who can look around themselves and see what's happening, who can look across the Atlantic and see the realities of the system that we are in danger of becoming a carbon copy of, that can look far closer and see some of the tragedies that are already happening close to home with just the small changes that have already occurred, and people also who have the foresight and strength to change what is happening and replace it with something far, far better.  The general condition of the people's health and welfare, has for a variety of reasons medical, political and environmental never been as bad throughout the entire history of the Health Service as it is today.  We are starting from a level  far lower than at the NHS's original inauguration, and the root causes of this low commencement level will have to be addressed at the same time and speed as the rebuilding of the service to have any chance of a successful outcome. It will be an uphill struggle. The original inauguration of the NHS took place at a time of great hope and enthusiasm, we had just emerged from a devastating war and were determined to build a better world in the future. The present time is one of doom, gloom and general apathy, where reasons why "not to bother" are far more important than the reasons to succeed.

More Impact in numbers.

In September the Welsh Government has proposed to cut down school transport and only offer the services to children attending the nearest local school. At this time children who are attending schools further afield are able to attend the school of their choice with the current bus services offered. This affects the children firstly.  As of September 2025 these facilities are being cut. This is not only going to affect the amount of cars on the roads but it will also target families on lower incomes, families with vulnerabilities and could potentially affect many young people's education if they are to forced to attend a different school due to the cuts. This does not support the proposed bill offered by the Welsh Government but acts against it.  Public transport services have already been cut in recent months and now they are cutting the school transport services. This area is desperately in need of more transport. Not the cuts that are being enforced. This will have a negative impact on many families, specifically those who are in need of more support. But again this will first affect the children first who are already settled in their chosen schools and potentially affect their progress in their education. 

The importance of keeping domestic cats indoors is to save our native species  In my own garden one cat has killed 9 nesting great tits 7 nesting wrens and a group of slow worms  This cannot continue across the country all our wildlife is fighting for survival cats are making things much graver for them and long term our fragile eco systems will be destroyed 

Why not make a tiny change to save a small amount of tax budget? Isn’t it ridiculous that with so many strains on the budgets to help people in dire straits, we get paid an allowance we don’t need?

It affects everyone!

Energy (Electric) costs form a significant part of the running costs of a house especially older rural houses that do not lend themselves to insulation improvement. Electricity bills can be halved by adopting both panels and batteries I have both and can absolutely vouch for the benefits. The addition of both solar and batteries can make you immune from most power cuts.

The pay gap between CEOs and their employees has spiralled out of control. In 2023/24, 18% of FTSE 350 companies reported a CEO-to-median employee pay ratio of over 100:1, while 5% reported ratios over 200:1. In some companies, the gap was even wider — with CEOs earning more than 600 times their workers. Despite widespread public concern, extreme disparities are entrenched — and disclosure alone hasn’t driven change. Polling by the High Pay Centre and Survation shows that 63% of people believe CEOs should not earn more than 10 times their low- and mid-level employees. (Source: High Pay Centre polling summary) This reveals a stark gap between public expectations and the current reality — and strong support for reform. Research shows that vast pay gaps damage morale, reduce trust in leadership, and lower workplace satisfaction. This can lead to reduced employee wellbeing and productivity. The UK has some of the worst levels of income inequality in Europe — and extreme executive pay is a major driver. At a time when millions face rising costs and stagnant wages, this level of inequality is not just unfair — it’s socially and economically damaging. A 10:1 ratio would incentivise higher wages at the bottom, rein in excessive rewards at the top, and help rebuild a sense of fairness.

Some shifts start as early as 3am and 4am and some are night shifts.

 Why is this important?   Small businesses cannot stand idly by and watch our businesses and watch our livelihoods go under.  The NI hike to Employers'  is closing businesses down and preventing those still struggling to continue from growing their businesses.  This is shameful and no government should be allowed to carry on with policies that are devastating to our economy. Our small business is suffering like thousands of others.

It will clean up our streets

When a balloon is released many find it a symbolic gesture of the balloon flying to heaven. In reality the balloon comes back down to earth as litter. It endangers wildlife and livestock as well as being unsightly. I have seen first hand and rescued a young puffin wrapped up in balloons, without intervention it would have died a long painful death. Turtles eat balloons believing them jelly fish and curious livestock often with eat balloons or get tangled in their strings. Balloon releases are litters and there's no excuse for it.
