THE MINORITY GOVERNMENT - WHAT NEXT ?
Some times I wish I had been a Politician !
I have been writing Articles for some 7 years posted on my website EUREKYS and visited by thousands of people. 131 articles to date. I do not claim to be 100% right all the time but at least I have been innovative, bold and visionary in my articles such as - Strategy for the NHS, Care for the Elderly, the EU, Housing Policy, Terrorism and many more of the problems we face today. I have sent many of my articles and copy of my proposed book IN BRITAIN TODAY to the Conservative Party and Labour supporting Institutions. I have also sent Articles to the National Press. No one listened !
The next big question is - What does the minority Conservative Government do next ?
My answer is - Restore Confidence and Belief in the Conservative Policies. This is not just a question of restoring faith in Theresa May but in the Party's Policies. So, what should they ? Will anyone listen this time ?
1- Announce that Winter fuel allowances will remain for all those Pensioners earning less than £70,000 per annum. Say that We are asking the rich to make this contribution.
2- Announce that there will be a Cap of only £50,000 for Personal contribution to Care costs. Most people will not have to sell off all their assets. If you have little assets, you will pay nothing.
3- Now, the big winner. Cut Inheritance Tax to those with assets up to £2 Millions. Raise the threshold to pay any tax to £1 Million meaning that most people will not pay a penny in Inheritance Tax.
4 - Reduce University fees to £3,000 maximum for a 3 year course.
Give a rebate to all students in previous years ...an extra £27,000 in Tax allowances against annual earnings.
5- increase Child Allowances by 20% for all Families.
6- Stop Austerity and go for £200 Billion Quantitive Easing to cover costs of new Policies. Remember the Government produced £400 Billion QE to save the Banks. This did not create extra Inflation as feared.
7- Announce an increase in National Insurance contributions to give pay rises to NHS employees. Maybe a 1% increase.
8- Be more flexible on Brexit. Aim for a compromise deal. Remember, this should please at least 52% Leavers and 48% of the population who voted to stay. You must attract the Young with some Goodies.
These are the Domestic Policies that will attract Young Voters back to the Conservatives, Elderly Voters and Family Voters.
These Policies should be announced soon saying - We have listened to the Electorate and these are our new Policies.
At the same time, review the Labour promises and show how they will not be able to implement these plans. Do not attack Jeremy Corbyn. Be Positive and fanfare the new Goodies.
Learn the lesson that Labour won support from their Goodie Bag Promises. Once in power, they would have done what they want. The objective was to gain power. They convinced the electorate. The
Conservatives did not offer exciting Goodies. It will be tough negotiations ahead. The Young and the Elderly wanted Hope and Goodies in the future. That is why the Conservative Manifesto was so lacking in Policies that would improve Living Standards.
Get the agreement of the Cabinet and the 1922 Committee as well as the Conservative MPs. Do not rely on Advisers. Listen to me instead for no payment at all.
So, where next for the Conservatives ?
Please, please listen to me and others like me.
Be Bold. Theresa May - you can turn this around in 6 months but you must be radical. Start the fight back now.
Aim to have all the new Policies in hand by The Conservative Conference in the Autumn. Then. Make an Autumn Policy Statement with all the Goodies.
The EU Negotiations with the EU. Make progress before August on Agreements for EU workers to stay in the UK and UK people to remain in the EU with all the benefits.
Reach agreement on Immigration such as free flow up 100,000 EU people who have jobs offered in the UK for Free Trade deal with the EU. In any case, make considerable progress to reduce fear of job losses and lower trade income with the EU.
If not, you are a dead duck !
PLEASE LISTEN TO ME.
