Immigration is necessary to fuel the economy (more so since Brexit, of course). The problem under the Tories is the refusal to invest in the necessary housing and infrastructure. The situation with right-to-buy, whereby councils are disincentivised from building social housing is a farce and it should be scrapped in England as it has been in Scotland and Wales.

Immigration is due to rise by six cities the size of Birmingham in the next 12 years. That is unsustainable, for space, for food production, for energy, for waste disposal etc. There needs to be a cap.

Blaming immigrants as ever. Do you agree that right-to-buy should be scrapped?
 
Public satisfaction with the NHS is at its lowest level ever, at 24%. The highest level recorded was 70%, in 2010.

What changed in 2010?

Labour left power saying there was no money left?
I don’t hear that the problem with the NHS is lack of funds. It seems to be organisational

Why do you think they've been striking if it's not lack of funds? Why do you think so many doctors and nurses are leaving? Why do you think they can't fill the 120,000 vacancies?

NHS England is in a better state than in Wales and Scotland under Labour and SNP respectively. After Covid and Ukraine/ energy crisis there's not much money about, and there seems to be an epidemic of "mental health" problems, ADHD etc from potential tax payers. I hope Labour bring in a charge for NHS visits, concessions for kids
