If I were @UKLabour leader, I would work with the @TheGreenParty and @libdems on an official electoral pact to remove all chance of tory victory. As PM, I'd modernise democracy, strengthen its checks and balances, implement fair tax, end tax dodging and send the corrupt to jail.
I'd make the state more efficient by introducing universal basic income. I'd make public provision more efficient by moving it back in-house. I'd transform the business landscape and personal freedoms by joining the Single Market and Customs Union.
I'd make it illegal for foreign nationals to own UK TV stations and print media. I'd make media editors personally liable for correcting falsehoods, with prominence matching the original presentation. I'd make it an offence for a politician to knowingly mislead parliament.
I'd give every home nation the automatic right to hold a referendum on UK membership. I'd give the UK the first chance to vote on #BrexitReality. I'd make it a crime to knowingly mislead the electorate during an electoral campaign, with custodial sentences for transgressors.
I'd move the UK Parliament to a new building away from London. I'd strengthen devolved parliaments, introduce English regional assembles and give the regions real power over their own affairs. I'd apologise to friends and allies on our continent. Then I'd work with them.
I'd treat the climate crisis like the issue we should have been dealing with most of my life, rather than getting sidelined with the battle against Nazis 2.0.
Ok @Keir_Starmer - Maybe you'd do a few things different, but power changes everything.
1. Some in the EU, angry at life-saving contracts not honoured, consider idiot move"
2. Others in EU point out idiot move. EU doesn't do idiot thing".
and GOOD:
1. Some in the UK dupe the people with lies into idiot move 2. Lies exposed. People not allowed to vote on idiot move 3. Idiot move implemented. Business, economy, freedoms shattered 4. We must celebrate our idiot move because the EU cancelled an idiot move!
🤦🤦🤦🤦
#BrexitReality could never win a popular vote unless people have been whipped up into a nationalist frenzy.
They will do their most to fan the flames of every disagreement. Separation. Schism. Anger.
I won't have anything to do with it. And neither should you.
Tanja is right. Conservatives are a minority coalition. Slave-trader statues? Threatening refugees? Ending foreign aid? Starving kids? Signals to keep it intact.
Rage changes nothing. Let's #TakeControl. A majority coalition *will*.
The #BrexitDeal is better than #NoDealBrexit in the same way that shooting yourself in the leg is better than gouging your eyes out with a rusty spoon.
But congrats to the tories who gambled the country to silence the ERG, lost, and reinvented themselves as UKIP to survive.
We now begin a period where the British are second-class citizens in their own continent, less free than Romanians, with less say over our continent than Malta. Where uniquely, British businesses fight with one arm tied behind their backs with red tape, delays and costs.
Our buying power has withered overnight. We're paying almost double for our #COVIDVaccine than EU citizens. Supporters of the #VoteLeave regime demand you clap like seals as their second-rate trade deals trickle in, a notable absence being a US trade deal after 4 years.
