Synopsis
90% of electors want political reform. But how to escape the mess? Britain should adopt a federal structure with a written constitution and an elected apolitical People's Council replacing autocratic and ineffective bodies. The United Kingdom needs fundamental change. Already we see that Labour are not thinking strategically about the causes of British decline. Tackling symptoms without the root causes is unlikely to be effective. Britain faces major challenges: •The climate crisis •An over-centralised State that cannot cope with the complexity of the twenty-first century •A tax base that favours oligarchs at the expense of the people •Determination to carry on the way things have always been done - "Nothing changes" •Putting right the continuing damage done by a hard Brexit This book offers one possible solution. It's meant to move the country's thinking forward. The book calls for major reforms like implementing federalism, creating a written constitution, establishing a People's Council, and redefining the monarchy's role. It investigates the failures within the system, poor policy decisions, and the negative impacts of neo-liberal policies, proposing solutions to improve democracy, economic performance, and international status. Only the people can bring about change. This book is a starting-point for discussion. Read the book now if you would like UK society and governance improved. Ignore the book if you are happy with everything the way it is. There is much waiting for you to discover, including the first-draft written constitution of the UK.
