Let's Put Things Right UK Only Population.

@0uijaFinger There's legal problems with empty properties "Forteiture" the owners lose 60% of their ownership in the UK this is caused by leaving them empty too long, the law, on this is very tight.

@senghenydd In that case it's easy:
- inequality and all the ills it causes

When I say easy I just mean it's easy to say what needs fixing. Unfortunately the UK has become such a divided and untrusting place that it will be very difficult to implement anything sane without some demagogue convincing the people already let down by poor education and lack of work that they will be the ones who will be worse off.

Perhaps Andy Burnham will shake things up enough that people will be able to see a way forward.

@ninalanyon Andy Burnham is the last hope for the Labour Party, sadly most of the Labour MPs I've come across weren't up to the mark I'll leave it at that.

I'm sure Andy Burnham will be the UKs next PM there is a feeling of hope I hope he ticks all the boxes.

Yes your right the UK is very much divided split down the centre, there's reasons which I'll leave to another time I'll do what most of the Politicians are doing and simply sweep the problems under the carpet.

We nowadays have to be careful what we post on-line people are going to jail they won't get me though.

@senghenydd I don't think Andy Burnham will make much difference even if he does become PM pretty soon. Yes he has charisma - so did Boris Johnson, but i would never even think of voting Conservative whilst he led the party. A catalogue of previous disasters behind him so that Tory MPs should have known better than to support him for leader BUT he had charisma and could win elections - so too apparently currently does Burnham, As for Burnham, during the last 12 months he has already "U" turned on a number of things leading up to the Makerfield election:
1 Rejoining EU 12 months ago yes standing for election - no because Makerfield was in an area that hugely voted to leave EU.
2 Not being in hock to bond markets 12 months ago - not in hock - by election have to comply with current borrowing rules
3. WASPI women even less than 12 months ago at the start of the campaign I think - compensate by polling day don't compensate.

So that doesn't fill me with confidence that there will be any change in implementing policies and then reversing them. In fact I think that the Labour party will find itself in the same position that the Tories did - change leader and 12 - 18 months later be back in the same poor position in the opinion polls. Then what - change leader again - that didn't do much for the Tories.

@gandalf1957 The Labour Party has never been so unpopular you can expect a party in office to lose some voters but this is different Labour held power in the Senedd for twenty six years they are now the third party behind Plaid Cymru and Reform.

I never thought it would be possible, SNP and Reform would be the two largest parties in the Scottish parliament, Labour are finished I think the Tories are in tatters as well.

Going back to Andy Burnham I think he will be our new Prime minister in September, will he save the Labour Party in my opinion no, he's made a big mistake he should of stayed as Mayor of Manchester.

It's difficult to prodict the political map of the UK after the next election Labour certainly will be out of office probably it'll be a hung parliament.

@senghenydd Labour have lost Wales because just as with Scotland they have taken for granted that voters would always vote for them and not listened to legitimate voter misgivings, Whilst not living in Wales, I am of Welsh descent and the family had a holiday home in West Wales from 1960 - 2024, so i do know a little about Welsh politics.

Don't believe though that Reform or the Greens are any more competent than Labour and the Tories!

Hung parliament at Westminster after 2029 you are correct - particularly if Burnham is the new PM and he can get proportional representation through which is something else he supported but I am expecting a U turn on that too,

@0uijaFinger Problem there small companies who aren't doing very well can't afford to pay the wages.

@0uijaFinger Surely there wouldn't be that much left to display.

@senghenydd No

@gandalf1957 As an ex-Apprentice myself my first three years weren't very productive my wages weren't great lots of my colleagues quit I'm sure the company we worked for run at a loss training Apprentices I feel sorry for Companies who are struggling to stay in business, our governments should do more to keep them in business, instead of bleeding them dry, forcing them into bankruptcy.

@Waveney Apparently they were cheaper years ago according to my Late Parents, I think that's right it sort of fits.

Why more caravans aren't available, people are living in house boats and on canal boats I don't know.

@senghenydd that is correct as a multiple of income house priced have increased substantially since the 1960s

@0uijaFinger No one can stop inflation.

@ninalanyon yes of course, however there can't be that many

@Carysoflife In what way do you consider the school system is broken, you'll have to excuses me it's years since I attended school.

@senghenydd classroom size , constant exams and pretty much we don’t learn anything but prepare for GCSEs

@Carysoflife Yes classroom size counts, Teachers should be accountable poor grades should be looked at.

@0uijaFinger I have found in the past if these sections of our roads haven't been reported to our Councils.

@senghenydd We have a natural spring under the hill we live on so they pop up all the time. We just need the water company to channel it properly

@0uijaFinger There was a Spring in my locality when I was a boy, it has now disappeared no road problems there, it's not a busy road.

@gandalf1957 I agree with you Women are taking jobs that traditionally went to men, look at the House of Commons this is a good example, men are supposed to be the main breadwinners.

@vbxcfg No I don't what exactly is your problem.
