M Matilda Public Seen by 6

In this area we’ll be discussing what policies you believe in for welfare, social affairs and inclusion in the UK. You can propose any policy you see fit and people can discuss it here.

I'd also argue that this gives all citizens a genuine opportunity to become business owners and job-creators in their own right. Currently there is too much risk for many people in giving up their employment to pursue their ideas/inventions/enterprises.

I don't know whether this is the right place for housing-related discussions, but: a return to 'general needs' home building by local authorities. We desperately need houses, and the private sector has failed.

So, I propose to restore councils' right to invest taxes in housing, and their right to re-invest the proceeds of Right-To-Buy sales in housing programmes.
