Whether it is a good idea or not, reducing the number of seats is politically implausible.

Yeah,yeah "HURR DURR If you're poor its because you're stupid"

Where was all the infrastructure built? And who do you think paid for it? Who paid for the road and rail network?

Yeah that's right TAXPAYERS, not private enterprise. You're talking nonsense.

I would humbly suggest that past money splurged on London is in large part responsible for the playing field being uneven. Having had that leg up, other regions will never be able to compete unless they are similarly elevated.

After that, take the hands off approach.

There needs to be infrastructure in place before businesses move somewhere.

The reason we get badly thought-through infrastructure projects is not government incompetence so much as corrupt backroom deals where those having their pockets lined or palms greased don't care about the consequences. Actually, its better for them to build something that doesn't work, so they can justify another corrupt contract to get it fixed.

As a carpark constructor I once knew liked to say "Always leave a pothole you have to come back and fix".

Good commonsense stuff. If i can throw one idea out there regarding the judiciary:

Tribunes. Elected tribunes.

There needs to be someone who can directly and immediately overrule judges when they make egregious decisions, and those people should be accountable directly to the public. Judges being scrutinised by other judges is a nepotistic nightmare.

The amount of neo-marxist terminology and talking points you crammed in there was disturbing.

Allowing those in prison to vote (not that I'm bothered either way) is a globalist backed push because those in prison are disproportionately poor left wing voters. ANTI-CONSERVATIVE.

Cash-for-babies, another left wing globalist agenda. ANTI-CONSERVATIVE.

I can confidently speak for the working class when I say we don't give a toss what "foundations" and "commissions" have to say. These are the same groups shoving open-borders mass immigration (UN endorsed) and online censorship (UN endorsed) down our throats. They are ANTI-CONSERVATIVE.

UN is anti-nationalist. Did you not just see the election results?

Well said.

Social media is mostly a left wing echo chamber. That's why the left (both here and in the US 2016) thought they'd win massively, yet lost.

They think twitter is real life, and it isn't. Same goes for facebook.

I doubt arch remainer Keir Starmer will go down well with the leave constituencies who just gave us a majority.

In FPTP it makes no difference if they voted TBP or just stayed at home and didn't vote. That seems to have been overlooked. Those people weren't going to vote for Jeremy Corbyn anyway.
