“We need a better system to fund local services. We need a national wealth tax, taxing 1% of assets over £10 million which should then be used to better fund public services.” open.substack.com/pub/bathnesg...

Playgrounds would become crack dens if greens were in power policing minister says.

Greens - Lower bills through nationalising our public services, wealth tax on assets and huge increase in investment in our public services.
Labour - ID Cards, random statements about flags and Austerity 2.0.
