• Years worth of successful rental payments in place of mortgage deposit.
    It’s important because whilst the price of everything is going up, incomes and salaries are not going up at the same pace. It is getting harder and harder for young people to get onto the property ladder all whilst there is a shortage in rental accommodation. Making it possible for people to get onto the property ladder by proving they can pay a larger amount every month successfully through rent, would improve so many peoples quality of life.

  • I support my General Practice
    General practice, like the rest of the NHS, has been deeply wounded by chronic underfunding. Did you know 90% of all of the contacts in the NHS happen in general practice for less than 10% of the funding? There is now only one fully qualified GP per 2,000 people in England, lower than in many other countries. The number of patients per practice is higher than it was in 2015, but the GP workforce has not grown, in fact we are now around 7,500 GPs short. We are also struggling to recruit GPs, nurses, receptionists and admin staff. Despite this deficit, General Practice has provided one million more practice appointments in July 2021 compared to July 2019. GPs in England manage a wide array of acute and chronic health conditions through over 300 million patient consultations each year on top of managing over 1 billion prescriptions a year, countless hours of administration, referral letters, home visits and caring for nursing homes. On top of this we have run the nation's largest vaccination campaign, delivering two thirds of phase 1 covid-19 vaccinations and encouraged one of the highest rates of vaccination in diverse communities through trust and education. Despite the challenges of the pandemic, soaring demand, a shrinking GP workforce and a workload that has often become unmanageable, GPs have one of the highest public satisfaction ratings of any public service in the UK. So to combat the sustained negativity in the media we want to show that there is still support for General Practice and all the work they do to care for their patients and the community. Let's show everyone that we stand with them!

  • Ban convicted domestic abusers from online dating sites
    Why should domestic abusers have a fresh start with a new victim? Its so easy for an abuser to end a retationship after irrepariable mental and physical damage has been caused, wipe the slate clean, blame your ex for a relationship breakdown and pop up on a dating site and then the cycle starts all over again

  • UK reform House Buying as Scotland
    To make house buying rules fair so only serious vendors and buyers follow rules to avoid time wasters that stop sales at last minute, to stop chain breaks in purchase of property. Anyone pulls out of chain to pain and incur costs of buyers who have paid surveyors, property searches and solicitors fees of buyers.

  • CARERS ALLOWANCE
    It is morally wrong to withdraw the money that carers get paid just because they become eligible to draw a state pension - after all they continue to provide 35+ hours of care per week. They are effectively being told to continue providing care FREE OF CHARGE. Many people are likely to be affected now by the rules and regulations and many more will be affected in the future when they reach retirement age

  • Get the government to stop funding in fossil fuels and to invest in true green energy souces instead
    The current plans and accounting methods used by our government to meet the challenging targets for 2030 and 2050 are more blah blah! and greenwashing than they are real plans to achieve a carbon neutral future. Comparisons with other countries in this scenario are unhelpful as we "export" our carbon footprint and pretend to be leading the world in cutting emissions when the truth is far from this. We need a proper plan which clearly outlines HOW we are going to make progress and WHAT we are going to spend on it.
