Here are your answers compared to this voter’s answers.
Foreign Policy › Human Rights Act
4>4 Personal answerNo |
Healthcare › NHS Privatisation
4>4 Personal answerI have had this discussion : seeing as the NHS has a shortfall of 8 million, and clearly isn't sustainable on tax payers money alone, then the answer is to have medical insurance as they do in Australia. Don't privatise it, it will be the kiss of death for any party politically. |
Foreign Policy › European Union
4>4 Personal answerNo |
Immigration › Deportation of Suspected Terrorists
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Foreign Policy › Mandatory Military Service
4>4 Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Tax Evasion
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Education › Tuition Fees
4>4 Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Tax Rate
4>4 Personal answerNo, but eliminate tax loopholes for top earners |
the Economy › Mansion Tax
4>4 Personal answerNo, because owning a mansion doesn't mean they're earning a huge amount of money. people should be taxed according to income, not assets.If you start taxing the 'rich' more, they'll move abroad where tax is less. Don't take away they're incentive to make money, or there will be no rich to tax! They're trying to make a better life for themselves and their kids. |
Healthcare › NHS Profit Reimbursement
4>4 Personal answerJust scrap privatisation and introduce medical insurance. |
the Economy › Welfare
4>4 Personal answerOnly make restrictions on benefits to those who could find work if they wanted. Don't cut benefits for those living in areas of scarce employment, single mothers, or at the expense of genuine cases where people are too disabled to work, or the elderly. The answer is to make sure people who receive benefits are unable to work BEFORE capping them, so better regulation. |
the Economy › Inheritance Tax
4>4 Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Child Benefit
4>4 Personal answerNo |
Education › GCSE Exams
4>4 Personal answerPersonally , I'm not sure exams are the best way to assess children: I have done a teaching course and understand assessment better. You don't want children to learn to pass exams , then forget everything they have learned. You want to give them education for life. Some kids don't fare well in exams, they don't suit everyone, and are therefore unfair methods to assess kids. Some kids clam up with nerves, or might not be feeling well that day,or be having problems at home, so their results are affected, and are too final. Better to assess children over a period of time , through out their education, with a series of tests in each subject ,the average mark of each test is their final result. Much fairer and more accurate means of assessing their abilities. |
Education › Standardised Curriculum
4>4 Personal answerTeachers are on the floor so to speak and understand their pupils better than the government. Teachers should have more input with regards to the curriculum, because they have the experience . |
the Economy › Young Benefit Claimants
4>4 Personal answeryes, to build up their experience, and motivate them to find work, providing the hours of community work they're expected to do doesn't impede their ability to find work. It also depends on their circumstances, have they just graduated, do they need further skills training, are they living at home, what are their expenses? |
Domestic Policy › House of Lords
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › British Monarchy
4>4 Personal answerIf they cost more than they make in revenue, then yes the monarchy should go, especially seeing as there are some people in this country living in poverty. That money would be better spent on the poor to make this an equal system. You cannot call our system a democracy with a non elected head of state, it's not fair. |
Healthcare › Emergency Medical Care
4>4 Personal answerDepends on the circumstances of the visitor. If they have been in the uk for some time and need emergency treatment and can't afford medical care then they should get free medical care , but only if it is an emergency. Anyone who has come here from outside the UK for free healthcare shouldn't get free healthcare unless it is a life and death situation. |
the Economy › Bonus Cap
4>4 Personal answerAny worker should be rewarded according to success, but not with excessive amounts of money, that is unfair! And in my opinion , the brokers who were responsible for selling sub prime mortgages should pay back all if not some of the money they made, as it was the tax payer who had to bail the banks out. Banks should not rely on the tax payer to bail them out when they make risky and frankly stupid decisions. Any banker who profited from our losses should have been made to pay that money back! |
Domestic Policy › National Service
4>4 Personal answerNo, it should be optional, and it would be better to focus on training and skills for young people. |
Immigration › Skilled Immigrants
4>4 Personal answerIncrease |
Foreign Policy › Trident Nuclear Weapons Programme
4>4 Personal answerAs the UK is a commonwealth country and a target, sadly yes, Trident should be renewed, but only to be used as a deterrent. |
Domestic Policy › Drug Policy
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › West Lothian Question
4>4 Personal answerReform the UK into a federal system |
Domestic Policy › Zero Hour Contracts
4>4 Personal answerYes, but only for those seeking part time instead of permanent employment |
Crime › Criminal Voting Rights
4>4 Personal answerYes, except for felons convicted of murder or violent crimes |
the Economy › Bedroom Tax
4>4 Personal answerBedroom tax was a big mistake as it didn't allow for vulnerable members of the community such as the disabled, and has helped give the Tories a cruel image. I can see the reasoning behind it, but only reduce benefits with exception to those who are disabled, and if they refuse to move to a smaller property. Did bedroom tax work ? If not then a new strategy is needed, and perhaps converting disused properties and more affordable housing would be an idea. I know in London old office blocks are being converted which is great, and I noticed Battersea power station is being converted into flats. |
Domestic Policy › Devolved English Parliament
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Transportation › London Underground
4>4 Personal answerMay be, providing those workers rights are protected.It would be good if it was a 24 hour service as it is in most other cities. |
the Economy › Buy to Let
4>4 Personal answerYes, but reduce tax evasion by landlords |
Domestic Policy › Welsh Assembly
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › Antisocial Behaviour Orders (ASBOs)
4>4 Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Non-Domicile Rule
4>4 Personal answerNo, this would discourage foreign investment in the UK |
Transportation › High Speed 2
4>4 Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Bitcoin
4>4 Personal answerNo, it provides too high of risk for criminal activity |
