There appears to be so many "vested interests" employed that I no longer know who believes what and what is the best way forward for the UK or Europe. The rest of the world must be looking on in amazement at the mess we have managed to make of our Governance and reputation in the past three years or so.
The way forward is complicated by a determination by Government to force legislation through, while various shades of opposition want varying things from a General Election, to a complete abolition of Brexit and to continue in the EU as if we had never decided to leave.
We might have another referendum, or a general election or both or none, nothing to help the public to voice their thoughts or frustration apart from taking to the streets.
Division between people, nations and those people from Europe settled here, who no longer feel welcome. No wonder many people are feeling alienated from all politics.
I feel that a General Election is needed, whether or not it results in a hung parliament. It seems to me that having a Government of National Coalition might be a simpler way forward. But of course the vested interests won't allow that. And the last coalition gave us Austerity, The bedroom tax and Universal Credit. All of which has increased poverty, homelessness and as always with these things, made the poor suffer the most.
I note the number of MP's who have decided that they have had enough and will leave at the next General Election, no longer wanting to be party to the shambles that is the current Parliament. Our local MP (Labour) who has served us well for 15 years is standing down, which we are sad about. She has been a faithful constituency MP and responsible for initiatives locally, alongside the Council to make life a bit easier for many of us.
We need strong, compassionate government, not the self serving policies coming from the current parties in power or opposition. I pray that we might actually have that soon.
