How about everyone being recognised for their criminality as well?

1) Reduce UK's exposure to banks


2) Rather than privatising public sector turn them into co-operatives


3) Invest more in the creativity industries


4) Give NHS freedom from political meddling


5) Give bonuses for success in export markets


6) Reduce taxation levels for the lower to middle incomes as these people are likely to spend more in this country unlike the rich 1% where they would spend elsewhere


7) Better planning policies to incorporate better timeless designs and longevity


8) More financial education.


9) Limitations on banking, CBI, etc lobbying


10) Increasing lobbying representatives for communities and marginalised groups


11) A fairer and open press that doesn't represent the views of a decrepit Aussie


12) Giving Unions the same powers given to Danish Unions


13) Better thought out transport policies that fitsahead of its time


14) Link success of industries to hollistic targets

Now lots of those are very good ideas (except number 4, it would be a bloody disaster), but can you honestly see ANY government being able to pull that off?


If you released that as your election manifesto, lots of people would applaud it, and you'd win the votes of many many students, but real people in real jobs, whatever class they belong to, wouldn't be able to vote for you, because of real life.


But redistributing wealth is a noble cause.

If it was a copy and paste job then you should be able to google the source. Good luck to finding it because the source came from me.


Edited to add: I'm going out so see you all tomorrow for more kick ass action from UDT.

I did a search on 'Danish' and can't find your comment UDT?


Re. Your comments...


'Reducing exposure to banks' as point 1 - that was my question, yeah how?


Public Sector is already cooperative, you daft wally.


Investing more in creative is an odd policy commitment, how much more and what do you think the return will be? It's esoteric, hardly working man stuff.


NHS freedom is supposed to do what? Increase expenditure? Decrease? How does that solve banking crisis?


Bonuses already exist for exports. Do you want government to pay them now?


Reduce taxation? *yawn* doesn't everyone?


Better planing designs? WTF? Is this anything to do with anything?


And so on.....

Dishonest tactics like facts and evidence. Hmmm, I can understand why you find those challenging UDT.

    • thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street... 
    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
