Wherever you look and whatever you look at things that we all expect to work simply aren’t working in the ways that most of us believe they should.

There are kids in Yorkshire with toothache who can’t get an NHS dentist. Each year it is harder to get an appointment with a GP who knows you. There are currently two GP surgeries closing each week at a time when the population of our communities is rising and getting older. It is currently the hardest time ever to buy a first home and even harder to rent something decent and affordable. Thousands of new houses are going up on green fields that local people can’t hope to buy on a local salary.

Communities, particularly local communities, matter. Under the guidance of extreme free market philosophy the best interests of investment bankers have become more important than the provision of affordable housing, good public transport and a well-resourced NHS. As an ultimate act of folly we have allowed our entire planet to be destabilised by pumping so much CO2 into the atmosphere that we are on course to double the amount that existed before the industrial revolution.
