What would you like to see done in the UK right now?

I know there are 400 "family hubs" but I also know that if SureStart still exists it must be different somehow and they must be doing something very wrong if they are closing in these times!

They may be "SureStart in name only?

What a shame my daughter's midwife didn't tell her about surestart, considering she had her mastectomy when her baby was less than a week old, and chemo shortly after.

Put pressure on the owners of social media platforms to monitor their platforms effectively, taking down all violent content. It’s perfectly possible for them to do this.

Nobody, but nobody, needs to see beheadings etc - it’s madness! Young people are becoming desensitised to extreme violence.

Elon Musk et al have a lot to answer for!

Absolutely this & also extreme porn sites, especially toward women.

Agree 100%.

Restore schools to local and central government instead of academies

On a roll here.
Would talk to the King and Sadiq Khan.
Would drop 3rd runway at Heathrow.
Plan to enlarge the ports and develop green ships
Would build hostels with small secure cells so people could sleep safely overnight.

Already in service:
Funnel emissions are sulphur-free, virtually particulate-free, with a 95% reduction in nitrogen dioxide. These three new ships of 42,200 tonnes each will be the largest in the Brittany Ferries fleet, with a length of 215 metres, making 3,000 lane metres available for freight.

Thank you for that.
I gets slightly miffed when people complain about what’s not being done when it’s obvious they haven’t bothered to research what is being done.

All of the above. Hefty sentence for those caught carrying a knife, or any weapon for that matter.

I’d like that. But the prisons are full, so who would be released to make room for the knife- wielders?

Two empty forts in the river Humber!!

I’m afraid there are areas of London where the police will always be on the back foot with stop and search.
The boroughs of Newham, Brent, Redbridge, Harrow and Tower hamlets have populations where 60% are ethnically diverse.
I’m only talking about London as it is the most ethnically diverse city in the uk.

Tx Petra.

Oops it also runs parenting courses.

The one near me is between a primary school and nursery.

It is right in the heart of the village.

The local midwifery team has its base there and carries out all the antenatal check-ups on site, along with postnatal baby/toddler checkups.

It has a drop in centre with tea/coffee and snacks with play place for the little ones. Advice on modern living and parenting available.

Not sure what more they can offer.

Harwich, Felixstowe and Dover are all expanding.
There is investment happening with green shipping

First, I would like the planned increased NI employers contribution scrapped.
Then would send £100 wfa to all pensioners to help with the increase in those costs.
Would start stop and search.For knives etc but also for some form of ID.
Would put up temporary units to house prisoners.
Also on the coast so boat people are immediately confined.

Would talk to Idris Elba as he is on a campaign re knife crime.
Would chase up and fine promptly the people who are late submitting their self assessments at hmrc.
Would reinstate local tax offices.

I love that....Buy British...... remember when we had factories producing well made items,providing good safe jobs for people. Often several members of families all worked in them, creating good community links to all generations.

airport metal -detecting scanners and a security guard at the entrance to every school

Can the Uk government not give a pile of money to Mauritius and spend it on the good people of the UK? There are so many cracks in our healthcare that need urgent attention.
Maybe introduce high tech scanners to stop children carrying weapons especially in schools?

I’d like to see more manufacturing in the UK and the support to businesses here to enable that to happen, whilst still ensuring a decent standard of living for all workers. I’d also like to see a Buy British campaign.

Just more RESPECT for everything and everybody.

If we all somehow showed more of that for ourselves, each other, our communities, our country, ……

Life would be so much better for us all.

Look at how family structure impacts the behaviour of young men in particular.

I think we need to look at nursery care!!!!!

Totally agree with stop and search, more use of knife arches where youngsters hang around.

It’s not just the family who have lost their loved one to knife crime that suffers, the young killers family suffer, the community suffers. Revenge attacks can be initiated and further violence ensue.

NotSpaghetti there are still SureStart centres, our one is in danger of closing, nothing to do with funding but because it is under used.

An immediate Cabinet re-shuffle resulting in the replacement of Rachel Reeves and Angela Rayner followed by a leadership challenge to replace our woeful PM.
Freeloaders, all three of them.

We must get rid of this government before they do any more damage. They just do not seem to have a clue...making it up as they go along.
Apart from that...pretty much the same as everyone else....get people to change their attitude to litter, dog mess and juvenile nuisance.
Fewer cars on the roads. All shops accepting cash. A total end to immigration. More bobbies on the beat.
